Many times I'll need motivation to get out the door. Sure, there's the streak and I know I'll at least get a mile in, but exactly when is the real issue.
I've been known to waste an entire hour just thinking about the different routes available before I head out. Or I might get distracted by what's on TV or checking my e-mail.
Deciding what to do for today's run was pretty easy. One of my four-mile routes runs right by Jake's Ice Cream, one of the best in the city!
In the past we've stopped there in the middle of the route to cool off and eat some fresh ice cream.
Today I decided to do the next best thing, to order a couple of pints. I brought a fanny pack for the occasion and they fit perfectly. There wasn't a lot of bounce with the pints, so the run back was ok.
About 17 minutes later, I was home with the delicious afternoon snack!
