Act like a horse, be dumb, just run.

I went running with my friend Aaron today, who hasn't been running in a while.  I think it about killed him but I had a nice run.  I wanted to run at least eight today but I ended up not having time.  I want to get a lot more mileage in !!

My distance is just a random guess... today was the funnest run ever.  Me, Nate, Diana and Hillary went running on some trails back behind Laie park.  It was so lush, and so beautiful!  We stopped a whole lot to gather lilikoi (i don't know if thats how you spell it)  and it was delicious.  We also played a lot in the dirt because it was the softest nicest feeling soil i have ever felt in my life... so we came back covered in mud with a whole bunch of lilikoi.  And we took pictures of ourselves as savages... hehe.

I was so proud of myself this day.  I wanted to show my friend Joe that I was no wussie, cuz I told him I wanted to run to Waimea and he said he didn't think I could handle it.  So I just went without him and only stopped a couple times.  It wasn't even as bad as I thought it would be.  I found it is really nice just running and running and running... and getting farther and farther... it is a really good feeling.  There were a lot of straightaways that I thought would never end but they did and it was always a good feeling getting to the next town or beach.  The run from Laie to Waimea was about 14 miles.  I took the bus home and ran home from the bus stop.  Total running time 2:10.  Don't ever let anyone tell you that you can't do something!!
