Note To Self:

...never ever run with an iPod because the one time I DON'T, I end up running over 9 km straight. (for all you Americans--that's 5.6 miles)

I realized that I love the sound of my footsteps hitting the pavement. I love hearing the little bugs in the grass make all those weird sounds that I can't even try to imitate. I love being able to actually hear when a car is approaching behind me so it doesn't scare the protons out of me while it passes.

Now if only I could make a habit outta this whole running thing...
