Fall In Love With Running

Fall is here on the calendar and also with our overnight temperatures, but at TRY time the mercury will have fought its way to an almost summery 70 degrees. Unlike me, this summer just won't quit!

Kelly has already posted about the group run - it will be quarter mile intervals for those able. As a non-runner myself, I didn't feel it was my place to chime in, but I'm glad the group vote was to attempt some form of group intervals again. (It is the only choice that allows for some semblance of a group run when there is such a diverse group of people running. And is even written up in our charter.)

The running part:
Slight, but lingering, injuries, my own apathy, and my own obesity all contributed to a poor spring and summer for me running-wise. Once September arrived I rebooted my running and turned off my watch and turned off my thinking about my runs. It has given me a clean slate and allowed me to slowly "fall" in love with running again. It has been refreshing! So I wanted to encourage anyone who reads this that is in a running rut - take a week or two to think about what you enjoy about running. And ask yourself what it would take for you to "fall" in love with running again over the next couple months? (There are a myriad of reasons that people run. Re-find your own specific reason!)

The fun but educational part:
You've certainly seen Truck Nutz by now.

And hopefully you've had an in depth discussion in the past about "neuticles".

But have you embraced the latest bike safety craze...the naturally inspired invention known as "bike balls"?

You're welcome!
