Exercise Type: Run

Comments:
We all reach an age where the limiting factor on when and where we run in not what our parents will allow us to do but how much worry we're willing to inflict on them. My parents have long taken it for granted that I need to get out and run on a regular basis during our vacations and this fact is non-negotiable. That doesn't stop them from fretting however, when, say, it's getting dark, I'm running on a highway, and I recently banged my head pretty hard getting into a van. I cut the run short after 15 minutes and headed back, in part for those reasons, and also because I was kinda miserable. I'm ready to be back running with other people and not at altitude. The lake, however, was gorgous at sunset.
