Recently I have decided to get over my uncomfortable-ness with running by... well, running!
This plan has been thwarted since I can't seem to get up early enough to get out the door. Last night I decided to run at night.
My entire perspective has changed. Running at night hides all the things that I have felt self-conscious about during the day. I get very red-faced when I run and I am always thinking about that but at night no one can see me. There are less people out - I can pant without worrying that I sound like my dog! And it's actually quite beautiful -- the moon, the stars, the lights of the city.
I think I'm a night runner! And I would have never guessed it could be so different so I thought I would share.
