So, in my continual quest to not be a bitch ive recently decided that because everything in town is within a 10 mile radius, that I am only going to run or walk to shop now. I can only fit stuff in my backpack anyway because I ride a motorcycle, but I thought this would be cool.
I ran about 10 miles yesterday going to the store for a pair of boxers. It was awesome. I had so much fun. I cant wait for rainy ass days where you just get totally soaked and come home dripping and grinning and get to shower and hop in a robe and hang out.
Its good times, and itll get you into shape. Maybe make you stop buying all the crap you dont need :D
just my thought of the week ;) |

I think I'll still use my car, even though the shop is only 900meters from my home.
The reason is I really don't like running on tarmac, better off in the forest. |

That is fookin cool.
Reminded me of when I was in colorado about a year ago, and we had this mother of a snow storm, we could not even find our cars. And work was shut down. So we walked all over the freakin place to get food, movies, firewood, got back home, made cocao, and chilled in robes.
But yeah, walkin about for short distances instead of driving is a great idea. |

how can you possibly have time for that? i have like 1-2 hours per day that i can use for my errands, housekeeping and excercise. running ten miles would take the whole afternoon... |

Wrong state, strangely enough for that... Colorado gets more sunshine days that Cali!
