I <3...

Daily ritual.. Witnessing sunrises.. Exploring new places.. Favorite mountain trail.. Being alone on the course.. Time to think.. Testing my limits.. Feeling fit and strong.. No gym required.. Focusing on me.. Seeing results.. Running for causes.. Meeting new people.. Supporting others.. Time spent with friends.. Girl talk.. New shoes.. Lucky socks.. Pre-race jitters.. Post-race exuberance.. Spectators lining the course.. Chasing PRs.. Catching PRs.. Catching the person in front of me.. Knowing what fartlek means.. Training partners..  Cross country camp.. Relay race.. Adrenaline rush.. Coach’s hand on my shoulder.. Cool rain on my face.. Wind at my back.. Salty sweat.. Accomplishing goals.. Eating what I want when I want.. Thick waffles with real maple syrup 🙂
