Sunday Run Day

This morning I took leave of my senses and decided I should run outside since it was a mere 74 degrees outside. My (old) route (that I haven't been on since resuming my exercise routine) has little shade and soon enough I was sweating profusely and my feet like they were being stabbed with hot pokers because I unwisely did not wear my trusty coolmax socks. But I panted and trudged through my two little miles and made it home safe and sound, where I juiced three grapefruits and felt whole again, noting that the temperature had ascended during my run to 85. We're having heat indexes of 110, though. Awesome! While running, I started thinking about my favorite running songs -- then, now, or both.
