Counting your steps when is one of the signs of OCD ( Obsessive compulsive disorder). I've got mild symptoms myself, so I understand-seach for OCD on the web-interesting to see where you fit on the spectrum.

While running a route, I really don't like to run on a same portion of the route twice. Tongue

I don't think I do anything weird. I just run.

Counting your steps, getting distracted and forgetting where you where in your count is one of the signs of ADD.

If I'm at the end of a run and the legs feel good and I've got enough water and I don't have to be back by a certain time, I always want to tack on 2 or 3 extra miles.

Try and count while your running and see how high you can get....its pretty funny. I usually lose count at 40 or 50 before i start thinking of something else...

Well, I know what I'll be trying on my run tonight. Big grin

I'm sure I won't much past 30 before my mind wanders off to something else.

I can't listen to music when I run. Other than that I think I'm pretty normal and slow.

Am I the only one sitting here trying to figure out the rhythm of Girmann's cheer? It sounds like a cool cheer--I want to know how to chant it correctly...

If there's a hard way and an easy way to do a route, I always go the hard way. The loop around our reservior has a big hill if you go clockwise. Most people go the wimpy way,not me. If there's a big hill on the route, I like to do that first.

I just realized this on my run today. When I'm running in crowded areas, or by cars during rush hour, I make the worst faces I can think of, and act like I'm about to fall over. Hey, people aren't supposed to think running is all fun and easy Yes, I know I'm strange...

I guess I'm just the opposite here, I want people to think WOW she is just comfortable , I relax my face and look around like "what? Yea I'm running, no big deal" (if you knew me you would find that hillarious, by the way) and when I run by a walker or others I quieten my breathing.
