Thanks for all your comments. I love reading what inspires others to run and about their running experiences. Sounds like everyone had a great NRD. Sorry you couldn’t get out Lisa, I hope your tendonitis heals up soon.

I’m glad you were able to get out there and enjoy your run. I’m hoping next year’s NRD will do more to attract new runners to our sport. The more runners the merrier. More runners equals more races, less travel time to races, more running partners, more successful fundraisers for local 5Ks and a healthier (and happier) population as a whole.

I really enjoy reading your blog. Keep it up.

Glad you got a good run in! Same thing here – my first couple of miles are the best before some pain/tightness kicks in.

I have to start taking pics again on my runs – it’s cool what we get to see out there running around

Great to hear about the painfree run. Being out on a run and seeing wildlife is the best, The wildlife you described sounds so cool to someone who is used to seeing dogs and the odd hare on his run

I had an unexpected treat today. I got to go running with my daughter on NRD. We have a little 5K route we have created in our neighborhood. Laura slowed her pace way down so we could run together the entire way.

I have many great memories of running races with Laura, running marathons for Kelly.

I never ever thought I could be a runner. I have learned a lot about myself and met some great people, some in person, some in cyber space.

Glad you got out and were able to celebrate NRD!

I wasn’t able to run today due to my tendonitis but I at least strength trained. I am living vicariously through everyone else that is able to run right now.

Running definitely makes me feel healthier and happier – taking time out for yourself to do something makes such a huge difference, and when that something is also good for your health? win-win situation.

glad you had a good Running day! I’m always a little baffled by people who have pictures from their runs – if I brought my camera I would get wayyy too distracted with photos to keep running!
