Master of the Side Eye
I have trouble not counting when running. I count one for every full breath in an out, to a hundred, then start over. Originally it was because I don't listen to headphones and it kept my mind off the pain and on pace, but now I find it hard to stop!

I've got a fever...
I don't count, but I "sing" (in my head) the UCLA fight song. It is my pace regulator. One day while on a long run, I started doing that, and now I can't stop. Not that I need to. GO BRUINS.
On your deathbed, you won't wish that you'd spent more time at the office. But you will wish that you'd spent more time running. Because if you had, you wouldn't be on your deathbed.
10 swipes of anti-perspirant for each armpit before a Saturday long run. Not 9, not 11.

To each his/her own, but I wouldn't waste deo on running BO. I'm gonna sweat and smell regardless. But 10 swipes? Wow. The deo people must love you.
One swipe each though.
