What runners think about when they're running

Posted by noob_runner on 8/7/2007 on noob_runner's blog

This week I've started taking my younger brother (6 years old) running/walking for about 1.25 mile to help him get ready for 1 mile run in October.

Anyway, today, mid-run, he suddenly said that he figured out what runners think about while they're running. I had no idea where this came from, so I asked, "What DO runners think about?"

He listed three things:

Where they're going,
Things to avoid in the pathway, like trees and bushes,
And watching for cars.

Which, if you think about it, is true. But that's not all we think about.

Anyway, just thought I'd share...
