Why I run...




So in honor of National Running Day!  I thought I'd talk about why I run and what running means to me  (Yes cycling is my #1, and yes running gives me a huge pain in my butt, but I still love it!).

I run for cupcakes so all the calories don't go to my hips

I run away so all the ungraded papers don't catch up with me

I run with friends because it is a great way to meet people and catch up with old friends


I run because it is the 3rd sport in triathlon and you have to in order to reach the finish line
I run because I can breath it's the best prescription meds you'll find...You'd never guess I have asthma
I run because if zombies attack I will last a little longer than most people

I run because it makes me smile and laugh and I sometimes just get lost in my music or my podcast (catching up on my Kevin and Bean show)

I run because there is some guy/gal out there that can't and I can

Running means freedom, friendship, and fatty food to me.  It keeps me going and keeps me sane at the same time.  So why do you run?
