Running Naked
My ipod is dead. The downpour on Monday really screwed it up.
After hours of trying to revive it, I decided to run without it. That's right. NO MUSIC of any kind. Except for the song in my head.
You know what? It wasn't really that bad. In fact, not having music blasting in my ears heightened some other senses. I was more aware of my surroundings, but most of all (and a good thing for a runner) is that I seemed more in touch with my body parts. Everything I felt was sharper...clearer. I think I even ran a little faster without the music and that is NOT what I expected to happen.
However, I'm not making it a permanent deal. Sure I could get used to running naked (without music, I mean) but I don't really want to.
I like my music. But how am I gonna get my hands on another ipod?? Hmmm.
BTW- I ran a short, easy 2.5 miles. Westville & Pointed Rocks.
