On monday I set out to do a smooth 3 miles. I currently do not have any training plan except to run. It was the afternoon and i find I am usually faster then but usually I do not have the time to run in the afternoon. So I am running and I run 1.5 and then turn around. This is the usual route I run and its on the side walk of a pretty busy road. I usually jog past one or two people but there is not a ton of foot traffic. I was listening to the Wicked soundtrack, i love musicals, but as the soundtrack goes on it kinda gets slower so I wanted something to pump me up for the last .3 miles. I went on my ipod trying to find “Can’t Stop Believing” song by the Glee cast, I totally am just putting it all out there on this one, I swear I sometimes listen to good music, but instead of selecting that song I selected “Can’t Stop” by the Red Hot Chili Peppers which was actually a really great song to end on. I am almost done and I see this lady walking, then start running towards me and then she sticks out her hand for a high five as I pass and says something like “way to go”. First, I do not know this lady maybe we have passed before but I am 95% sure she was not in “running gear”, but in my flight of endorphins I high fived her and continued on my way. So yeah that was interesting. Any one else have people randomly high five you? Here are my times, I need to set my garmin so it does not add it up like that but that would require time, one day.
lap 1: 13:11
lap 2: 27:30
lap 3: 39:53
lap 4 cool down: 43:04
sweaty but happy
when i started to run during the day i started to notice this. i thought it was a wicked sock tan but its more like dirt. it reminds me of when i was a kid and i thought i would get tan at camp but then you would shower and it would go away.
i also need to get a darker colored hat. so over humid florida and its only april. its going to be a long summer. well thats all the weird reveling stuff i got for now. hope everyone has a fun and relaxing weekend!
Other people are inspired by active people… That would be a totally awesome experience, I have had kids put their hands out, but never adults.. Great run
cheers
