Yesterday I was out for a run and trying to think of what to write about next, when out of nowhere it fell right in my lap. A car slowed down coming towards me, and a guy leaned out the window and tried to ask me for directions. This has happened to me before, but not since I started writing a blog. Anyway, I did the same thing yesterday that I have done in the past, I just sort of shrugged and kept on running. I mean seriously, what do you expect? One, I have headphones in my ears and I can’t hear you. And two, do you really think it’s reasonable to expect me to stop running in order to talk to you? I’m jogging for a reason, and if I stop to chat my run is over. Would you ask somebody swimming laps at the gym to get out of the pool and show you where the locker room is?
