A runner's playlist

I'm so happy that it's warm outside and lighter longer! I can finally run again and I'm feeling so good! Each week I improve, I'm more excited for the next long run! 

 I love the feel of pushing myself to the next level. I love the fresh air and sunshine beating down on my back. I love the freedom, seeing places with a new perspective, falling in love with the place I live. I love coming home and telling my husband how far I went because he's always so proud of me. I love the sore muscles the next day because they mean I worked hard. I love the runner's high. I love the camaraderie runners have. I love that it's just me and the pavement. And I love the time I get to listen to some of my favorite songs.

I've been thinking a lot about how music affects my running. I've been trying to come up with the perfect playlist for myself. Today I enjoyed every song that came on during my run. Not all of them pushed me to go harder or faster, but each one made me so happy to be alive.
