Running to Work Date : February 27, 2009
You’d think the traffic would be worse at lunchtime on a warm (but drizzly) Friday afternoon than at 7:00 am in the morning, but apparently not. Traffic was light and an amazing number of drivers (including a semi!) actually moved over for me on the sections where I have to run on the shoulder of the road. I love tracking the running commutes in Smarttrips. The reporting feature shows the breakdown hovers around 70% drive, 30% run/carpool most of the time. It feels good to be doing something for me, my bank account, and the environment. Plus, it smoothes the hard edge off the workday from the get-go. And if someone saw me, thought “I’m going to run today,” and actually did, it’d be creamcheese-sinfully-deluxe icing on the cake.
