So I have to say that one of my favorite things to do fitness wise is to just go on a run. For whatever reason, I find it so peaceful. This is my time. My time to worship, my time to reflect, my time to think. Just my time to be with myself, no distractions…just running. Truthfully, I was not much of a runner until I graduated from college. My first year of graduate school I decided I wanted to run a half marathon. And not only did I want to run a half marathon, but I wanted to run it in San Francisco. Yep…hills. This meant I needed to train. A LOT. It was really during this time that I realized how much I loved running. I spent a lot of time running the plains of Auburn and truly loved every minute of it. So now I like to find route, but I also just like to go. Just run. And see where I end up, and how far I can go.

When I am running, I typically have a good playlist in the background. As I said earlier, sometimes my run is my time for worship so I may have worship music on. Sometimes I am angry so I just need to think so my playlist may be loud. Sometimes it’s soothing if it has been a long day and I am tired. Whatever I am feeling that is what I choose to listen to. But, I have rounded up some of my favorite songs to run to right now so check them out!
