It's the Little Things...

Isn't it though? Sometimes something so simple can make your day. I don't know why - but some of the good things I've noticed lately happen when I'm running (much more on this later), for example:

Monday's 8 miler: Preface - I haven't been on the trail for a month due to MI visits and it being too darn hot so I opt for week long sports club trials (free and fun!).

Monday's Little Thing:
Me: (giving the runner's 'wave' and nodding to a guy on rollarblades that I see all the time on the trail) "Good morning!"

Rollarblade dude: "Morning - hey, you're back!" Huge smile.

Tuesday's 5 miler: Preface - never run in the afternoon, but did because I had a meeting downtown and decided to wait for Ross. Blazing hot and humid, and I'm in a bad mood.

Tuesday's Little Thing:

Mom running with little kid. Little kid on scooter. Little kid has to pee - bad - and they're still like a mile from their car. Mom pulls kid off the trail and stands in back of him while he pees. Hilarious.

Wednesday's 8 miler: Preface - keep seeing friendly lady on trail. Because I hate looping this route, I decide to run 3 out, come back 1 mile, repeat back to 3 mile spot and repeat back down the trail to starting point. Pass friendly lady several times.

Wednesday's Little Thing:

Me: (About to pass friendly lady for the fifth time this morning) "Hi, again!"

Friendly lady: "You're amazing! Good work, girl!"

Me: "You are too!"
