im about to go running on pavement for the first time since....january?

but i promised myself i'd start running again, and to make that promise sticks i dropped an overabundance of dollars on new balance running shoes. so if i don't use them for running and just gym around in them (which i've been slacking on when my life got crazy recently) im going to feel like i scarewed myself.

im just waiting till this bit of coffee hits me because im definitely not used to mornings, much less running during them.
and i picked up a new pedometer. im going to make sure to do 10,000 steps a day. not all of running...actually i have no idea how many miles that is. we'll see.

but i mean, by the end of the day i have to be at 10000 before i go to bed. its my deal to myself.
i should drive to the track but im not going to want to drive somewhere to run right now, and theres a really pretty lake right down the stairs with a sidewalk around it

funny, holidays 2005, when bad things happened, i was doing more running than usual to help ease everything and it worked great, but since i was out of the habit this time it worked in the opposite way and i just didn't want to do it. shows me how important it is for me to be out of the soreness stage of running to milk it for what its worth. i remember i did some of my best thinking then. i made a lot of posts on here right after midnight runs. i'm sure thats when i'll be running regularly, but for some reason today i woke up with the motivation.
i like running in the dark better. something about it.
but i miss the old feelings of running around the keller streets. running by the park and that bench facing the lake where i had hung out with some of the most...life changing? boys of my life. i remember being angry some nights and blasting glassjaw and circa survive while i ran. ape dos mil still makes me think of all that...but in a good way.
i remember allison would catch me online late a lot. i was always up till like...6 or 7am. but so was brian weak so it wasn't bad.

eh. anyways.
kill the drama, catch the beats.
