2015-09-16 - If you miss a day of running

If you miss a day of running, nobody knows. If you miss two days, you know. If you miss 3 days, everybody knows! Actually, this is not at all the reality but to runners it sure seems like it. Maybe with all the new running apps we use to track our miles someone might figure out we missed some days but the reality is that nobody cares about our running.. just us! This is another aspect of our sport I love. We get to choose when, where and how much to run or not run. So much of our lives are controlled and dictated, our run is true personal freedom. All that said, sometimes it feels like we are "sneaking" out for a run. We know the beneficial aspects of the run mentally and physically, we know we return from the run rejuvenated and more productive, better able to work and be there for our families. So why do we sneak out? Because only a runner would understand the seriousness of our play time.

Run free,

Randy step, an admitted obsessed runner who just missed 3 days, and now everybody knows, dang!

PS: It's a perfect time to mark  Feb. 13 - 20 on the calendar and join the Dirt Crew for our annual  winter run trip to the sun. We have 80 direct flight seats out of Lansing to take us to the "Now Jade" resort in the Mayan Rivera, a safe, fun place to run and sun. All non-running friends and family will love this all inclusive getaway and you'll be back from the morning run before they know you were gone. RSVP here! Check out some more info here!
