30 Days: Day 8, Running is a journey, enjoy it!

4-mile run in Blue Spring Mo.

Last night my wife reminded me that “because I’m on the road traveling ” is not a valid reason to press pause on achieving your goals.  When we got settled into our hotel room after midnight,  she encouraged me to go for a run. And after the experience I had with the hotel  treadmill, I wasn’t going back today.  So today’s run, I grabbed my TomTom Sports Watch and went out to find a path to run on.

I think that every run brings a  new experience.  Every chance that I get I make the experience even newer, I try to take it.  Today, in a town I didn’t know,  I went for a run on streets I was unfamiliar with.  And I enjoyed every moment of the journey.  From my hotel, I ran 2 miles down the road (following the sidewalk) and found my way back the same path.  I also did a bit of house watching while I was in the neighborhood.  They were absolutely beautiful!

I didn’t listen to an audiobook or a podcast during this run. Instead, I used a
Spotify workout playlist. The music that was played kept my mind off of the fact that I was once again running hills. Did I mention I can’t stand running hills!

That’s another 4 miles in the books!
