Short run. I could feel all my muscles screaming. I almost got hit by some stupid truck that decided to make a left into an alley way.  I didn't see him until he was about a foot away from me.  I have never been so scared before.

Screaming muscles is sometimes a good feeling...

Burt - thanks!

Mike - I totally agree!!! :o)

Kelli - Thanks!

After this run, I did a few more out side, and then talked it over with Brandon. I'm having too many close calls with vehicles lately, and it's because I'm running at dusk. So, for at least the summer, I'm doing my week day runs at the Multigenerational Center. Running on a tread mill really bites, but it definitely beats getting ran over!

I agree. And, I promise, you do get used to it! Just get an iPod loaded with good music and then park yourself in front of a TV and a fan!
