I'm hooked

Well, thanks to my Anna-banana and Splatty Patty, I'm hooked on running.

• The "endorphina's" as Patty calls them. {edit: this, I guess was termed such by Anners}
• I love the feeling of accomplishment I get when I'm done.
• I love feeling my muscles get stronger!
• I love comradery among my running friends!
• I love clearing my head when I'm pounding the pavement.
• I love the nature and people and activity I see along the way.
• I like having an excuse to buy cute work-out clothes.
• I enjoy going to race days- the thrill and energy the beats through the event!

Things I don't like but choose to overlook:

• "Bonking" -a bad run, hitting a wall-physically or mentally
• Not having the "gumpsion" to just get off the couch and DO IT. (I'm always glad I did when I'm done)
• I admit I don't like running in the cold, but I'm getting over it.
• Sore tendons
• Feeling guilty when I don't get myself out there...
