It's not so easy to run every day. It's hard work. Some days really hard. Today was one of those hard to keep running days. I'm glad I have a destination in mind, so I know that I have to run to the gym. The only way to get home is to run. Sure, I could walk.. which believe me, I think about.. do I ever do it.. just walk it.. nope! I don't walk because I know its going to take me twice as long to get home again or to the gym. I know I burn more calories running then I do walking. So the only way I'll stop is if something doesn't feel right or I have pain where if I kept running I would make things worse.
I should have been motivated to run today. I didn't get to run yesterday because it rained and I really missed it.
What I am looking for is a change again. I want to try some trail running on dirt paths through the woods. The park close to home, finally is done. I think the loop is 2 miles. I'll bring along my phone GPS. It's something new that I can look forward to. I don't think the park opens until 8am so this is a good option after lifting weights at the gym or going in the afternoon when I'm looking for something to do.
