Fall is my favorite season! I just love everything about it! I love the cooler weather and wearing sweaters and seeing the leaves fall. I love pumpkins and apples and hot cocoa. I love baking bread and making soup and having hot oatmeal for breakfast. Fall is also my favorite season for running.
Last night's run was amazing! I was tired, so I kept my run short. I only did two and a half miles, but it felt great. The air was cool and crisp, and I loved crunching through the leaves on the sidewalk. A lot of houses in my neighborhood have decorated for Halloween (aka the best holiday ever), and I was positively giddy seeing all the fun and spooky decorations. It was pretty much fantastic and helped remind me that running can be enjoyable. I've had a lot of rough runs in the last couple of weeks and was getting a bit discouraged, but last night's run helped rejuvenate me and gave me a reason to keep going.
I'm going to enjoy fall while I can, because I know that winter will soon be here.
