Miley who?

And this is what we learned this week...

Central Park runs are always good runs.

Central Park runs are always good runs. Three loops around the Reservoir and a loop around the park.

Ouchies...

Ouchies......Took a nice trip running in Brookline, MA last night on part of the Boston Marathon course in the dark. Wacked my right hip on the concrete sidewalk pretty good I guess because it still hurts a bit. My water bottle protected my right hand that I used to try to save myself from wacking my head too. Not the first time I took a trip and fell running, but this time I shouldn't have a small scarce like I do on my knuckle from the last time. Last time I broke my Nike+ GPS watch when I fell though ARG!

Lookie what I found.....

This was a pretty good Buzzfeed article on running:

Enjoy

Why Run?

I run because I can.
I run because others can't.
I run to free myself of everyday life.
I run to clear my mind.
I run to see the world.
I run to try to accomplish something.
I run because everyday is a gift that others don't get to see.
I run because Boston is my home.
I run to feel the sweat dripping off my body.
I run for the joy of it.
I run to be around others that run and share the joy of it like a family.
