This weekend, I am going to start up again on my running. I used to run marathons, and play softball, but I am going to keep up on running so I can get ready for cross-country. Usually, after school, I get out my Nike Shox and hit the pavement. I can run for hours and miles, not bothering to stop. Most people hate the protests of their muscles after this sort of exercise, but I love it because I know that they're limbering up and becoming stronger. Running keeps my mind off of the things I've been stressing, upset, mad, and happy about, and all I think about is the road before me, and the next steps I'm going to take. I rarely take my music, because the songs can put me in a certain mood when I'd much rather have a blank mind, focused on nothing but the sounds of my shoes hitting the concrete, and my next moves. If I have to come to a stop for some reason, I just run in place. I like to push myself and see how far I can go. As long as I take my phone with me, I'm as free as a bee to fly where I want and when I want. This sort of solitude would usually drive me insane, but when I'm running, I prefer to be alone. I hate running and having to slow down for your partner to catch up, or stopping so they can take a break. Running is my favorite thing to do.
