Thoughts Before Today's Run:

• Ugh, I hate all my running routes. I need to move just so I have new places to run.


• Seriously, I've run all the trails around me a million times.


• I need to text Megan and set up a running date.


• Ughhh I hate all the music on my iPod. Need some new music suggestions stat.


• Ughh I hate running after work, but it's so nice out. I should really take advantage of the gorgeous weather.


• Ohh look I found a cute running outfit in my closet that's clean. Winning!


• Just put on your shoes and go.

• Why do I have goosebumps? I mean I know it's not a million percent humidity, but this is weird.


• Oh I'm warming up and the goosebumps are gone now.


• Awe there's so many cute kids out riding their bikes. I remember doing that on nice summer days when I was little.


• OMG it's soooooo much easier to run when there's no humidity.


• I feeling like I'm flying.


• SHIT GARMIN DIED! I DON'T KNOW HOW FAST I'M ACTUALLY GOING! NOOOOOOO!


• Well I feel like I'm running really fast, so I'm just going to go with it.


• This hill is a bitch. God why did I pick the route with a mile-long climb at the end?


• Oh yes, almost home. I am awesome!

• Wheee! Running is great. I love it.


• I should sign up for more races! Maybe a marathon...


• Sike I have grad. school starting soon, I don't have time for 20-mile long runs, especially during football season.


• But...marathoning...it's fun...and I miss it.


• I love how strong running makes my thighs.


• I really want to run Philly again. That's such a great race. Maybe I should pencil it in...


• That course holds my marathon PR...


• But let's be realistic, maybe just the half.


• OK brain, stop thinking about running, it's time to go do stats homework and watch the Phillies.
