Why

Was reading another blog and came across a list of "Why I Run". I thought, hey, I should do that! I think that it's a good idea to remember and keep telling myself why I'm doing this to help keep me motivated. Although mine should really be "Why I Run, Jump, and Work-Out in a General Sort of Way"

• to de-stress and forget about my responsibilities
• to see how happy my dog is when we run together
  
• to see how far I can go
• to prove that I can
• to get in touch with the world
• to breathe in the scent of eucalyptus trees in Golden Gate Park
  
• to drink beer guilt free
  
• to see the City from the vantage point of my feet
  
• to be outside
• to feel confident in my skinniest jeans
  
• to be healthy and active throughout life and into old age
  
• to absorb some vitamin D
• to say and know that I did it
