Want to Run Bad

It's 8:45 am and I'm sitting in a technology class. Today is my second day in class, and after sitting in class from 8 am to 5 pm yesterday, I couldn't go another day without running. It keeps me sane and my mind fresh. I woke up at 6 am in order to get my run in. The hills around my aunt and uncle's house were way to big. I noticed that yesterday as I was driving in. Wherever I go, I tend to scope out the terrain to determine my running potential. I love running in new places but there are a lot of things that I take into account before I brave a new place: is there a sidewalk? Is it safe? How hilly is it? What is the traffic life? How many miles can I go? Just a few thoughts that I have when I drive into an unfamiliar place. As I sit hear and listen to my professor talk about web 2.0 and wireless devices, I am at ease because I was able to do my favorite thing bright and early this morning. I only went about 4.5 miles but it was just enough to freshen my mind. As I ran I could smell some plants that reminded me of times I spent in Atlanta when I was younger, whether it was soccer practice or just hanging out with friends. I'm interested to know what it was. I love smelling things that remind me of sweet memories. And now I'm sitting in class for 9 hours dreaming of traveling and running in unfamiliar places. I'd say that I'm pretty content right now; the only thing I would like is a nice cup of coffee.
