Happy Valentine’s Day!  While I won’t be out there celebrating with a significant other, I will spend it at home with my cats whom I love very much and they both love me too.

Now let’s talk about running.  What’s not to love about running?  Let me tell you what I love about running.

❤️ The gear.  I have lots of tops and bottoms to run in all 4 seasons.  Let’s not forget the running shoes.  I went through a phase in which I had boxes and boxes of shoes but now I have calmed down. 

❤️ Meeting up with friends.  I run alone in the morning but I love seeing and meeting up with friends at races.

❤️ Traveling.  I’ve traveled to over 40 states to run a half marathon.  I still need to travel to South Carolina, Kansas, Wyoming, South Dakota, North Dakota, Idaho, New Mexico, and Hawaii.  The two states I’ve traveled the most to are Florida and California because of the RunDisney races.  In November, I would like to run again in Florida for the Wine and Dine Half Marathon.  When I ran it a few years ago, it rained the WHOLE time and I was miserable.

❤️ Feels good.  Sometimes I do get tired from running but many times it feels good.  I love running in the morning because I know I am doing something good for myself and my body. 

❤️ Support and encouragement.  As I’ve mentioned before, I do run alone.  But that doesn’t mean that I don’t have any running friends.  We may not all live in the same state, but we are there for each other.  They’re the best!
