When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?
Mostly just curious....how do most people find a route for your weekly long run? Do you just run an out-and-back, going a little farther out each week? Or do you do one large loop, and figure out how to make it larger each week? Or multiple loops?

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.

I try to create loops that go near places where I could use the restroom if needed. My favorite four-mile loop during high school went right by the hospital at about the two mile mark. Ah, sweet relief!

remind your lungs how much they like the taste of air.

Jeff doesn't like to blow mud, ya' know...
I have no problem with blowing mud per se; I just prefer not to do it in my shorts.

Oh, and I avoid multiple loops at all cost. If I want multiple loops I'll go run on a track.
