When I'm running, I feel good about being out there, but it HURTS.

Mr. Inertia: It makes me feel like an athlete runner92: It fills me with a sense of accomplishment. mtsnorider: I love how I feel after running a distance that I didn't think I could do when I started that day. obiebyke: having a healthy commitment in my life zoom-zoom: setting a good example for my kid being an inspiration to other pudgy moms...I hope they see that runners come in all shapes and sizes and think about taking up a sport for themselves holo: I love setting up small short term goals and accomplishing them. stfuandrun: I love seeing the look on someones face when I say that I ran 4 miles that morning.

Finishing a run or a race. Oh, and nice easy runs with DW on beautiful mornings like today.
At the end of the day, be happy with where you are and what you've accomplished.

Half Fanatic #846
... it's the feeling during a run. It's that moment you look down at the watch and wonder where the time went. How could I cover that distance in what seemed liked an instant. It's a time I can zone out all the days BS. My time.

I LOVE Your profile picture, as my BFF is my Golden Retriever Frazier...... ( even though HUB is great too!) Ditto on what running is doing for my 41 year old body. Of all the diets and dreadmill walking I have done over the years, nothing is tightening things up quicker than running has. I have only been at it since September of 2007, but man, I could not even Imagine NOT running now. I cannot wait to get to a solid base foundation built so that I can add more days of the week with short/easy runs to really get this sluggish metabolisim ramped up.

One day at a time
Lots of what has been said, but also, I like running because it is time in my day when NO ONE IS TOUCHING ME! I have a 4 yr old, a 1 yr old, a 1 yr old dog, and a husband.
