I run alone all the time and for the most part I enjoy the solitude, but those dark runs can feel just lonely sometimes, when you can't see much of anything expect the beam from the headlamp. Props to you for being able to handle all those runs in the dark.
Those runs in the dark keep me sane in the daylight.
I can also think about some really stupid shit before daylight.
Runner with a riding problem.
2712. Almost all in day light. I used to run very early, in the dark, but don't anymore.
I find it hard to get motivated to leave the house when it's dark outside. I just don't want to do it. The runs themselves are not bad, especially at dawn. Pitch black darkness though is a chore, more so mentally than anything.

I just remind myself that not too many cars are out, the danger is around 6 AM and when grumpy people are going to work, they're trying to run me into a ditch. Not to mention the punk ass kids out there around 6:30 and they've always got something to say to a runner.

DaveP ran more than me, which means all is right with the world.

1948. My original goal was 1500, which was changed to 1800 when it became obvious I was going to be able to reach it easily. I should have been more ambitious, but since my best previous year was 1250, I thought 1500 was a stretch. I was lucky that I never got seriously sidelined by injury, just vacations.

Not my year: 785 miles, which is less than half what I have run each year the last 7 years. Hoping to be back on track for 2016.
20,000 miles behind me, the world still to see.
2044.3. First time over 2K.

Great job, Ginny!
