27 Reasons I love to go Running!

1. It’s a reward for sitting in the house at the computer for 8-10 hours or doing other things I don’t really want to do. Yes, I said REWARD! If you run just enough to make it fun and don’t run when it’s not fun – then it’s always fun – yes?

2. See wildlife! Over the years I’ve seen (Hawaii, Thailand, Florida, Pennsylvania):

•  Large red, white and blue woodpeckers!
•  Centipedes and millipedes and all manners of crawling insects, some of which go “crunch” under my feet accidentally.
•  Lizards that change color, and flying lizards, water monitors (7+ feet), Tokay Geckos (listen to it’s call)
•  Flying insects – some of which get sucked into my mouth and chest if I’m not paying attention to keep my mouth 80% closed!
•  There are these cicada type things in Thailand that make the whole park scream at 6 pm everynight in the Summer. (listen)
•  A large timber rattlesnake crossing the road – it was as thick around as my 15-16 inch neck!
•  Deer, hippos, peacocks, and vultures (I ran through a small zoo regularly in Thailand that was connected to the park!)
