Posts Tagged ‘run a 5k’

I look forward to the summer because I can finally get my running shoes out of the closet. In the winter months I crave running whenever I watch a show on direct tv Texas and someone is running. The spring is even worse because some days I can run and some days it will snow so I can’t. The summer is the best time to run in the morning hours.

I usually get up at 5 am anyway, but in the summer I move my schedule around to run at that time. I like watching people wake up and get ready for the day, it gives me a solid feeling of belonging to a community. I start the summer speed walking and running in intervals and by the end of the summer I am able to run several miles in an hour.

The running is a great way for me to stay in shape, but I do it for the tranquility. When I run it is just me alone and many people who are busy don’t get that enough. I happen to be one of those people. In the winter I meditate, but I like running better because I am outdoors. At the end of the summer I usually run a 5k race so that I can have something to accomplish that shows how hard I ran.
