Hey guys, happy Tuesday!
How was everyone's weekend? Mine was pretty wonderful. I ran (per usual), had WAY to much fun, and ate a doughnut....pretty successful in my book :)

| I will dream about this doughnut forever.... |
I just wanted to pop in quick to ramble some thoughts from my run yesterday. Not sure what it was, but yesterday was just one of those days where I was thinking way too much, and it wasn't doing me any good. Ever have that? When you just cant seem to turn your brain off? I had a bigger workout planned, and when I finally got off work, I was ready to just hit the pavement.
Now, I know there are plenty of people who use exercise as "therapy", but I never have. It just isn't one of those things for me. Sure it always makes me feel better, but that's usually because, well, who wouldn't feel better after they workout?! Anyway, I turned on one of my "angry" Pandora stations (well, as angry as Fall Out Boy and old school Blink 182 can get). As I was going along with my "head movies", I realized a lot of what was may be bugging me, or thinking WAY to much about, were starting to make more sense, and I just started to feel better the more I ran. I was glad I had some harder tempo stuff in the middle of my run, as a distraction - too much thinking isn't always a good thing, but to also push some of my frustrated thoughts out.
I ended my run with a lot more peace than when I started, and turns out, it feels pretty good. So for all of you that use running as alone time with your thoughts or who run to clear the cobwebs in your head, I get it, I totally get it.
Oh good lord, I'm such a drama queen, sorry I force you to follow me down the depths of my brain sometimes...
