About a week ago I went shopping and bought a new bag to carry my running stuff. It is so great with a pouch for shoes and my phone and ipod and everything else I could need. I was so excited after buying it. I think buying the accessories is my favorite part about running.

Yesterday before leaving work I changed into my running clothes which was very helpful in actually motivating me to run. I drove to the back of campus and ran a trail. It was nice outside and the sun was just setting.

The run felt really good. I went at a pretty slow pace, but I felt like I could have run a lot longer than I did. Runs like last night make me actually enjoy running.

TIME:
Ran for 19 minutes with a 40 second break to stretch

MILEAGE:
1.6 miles

Other items of interest:
-I saw a horse peeing. It was kind of awkward but very amusing.
-There were a lot more people out on this trail than I anticipated. I saw a cute baby in a stroller with his dad who was running.
