Some Running Things I've Wondered About

Run a Marathon

Running in my little part of the Vancouver Marathon last weekend reminded me some things I seem to wonder whenever I go in a running event:

-how girls can run in a spindly little non-sports bra. I saw so many of these on Sunday and my only response is "ow". Or maybe "OW".

-how anyone can run with keys in their pocket. It makes me absolutely crazy to run even anywhere near all that jangling.

-why I don't run with music. I don't have an iPod (still), but my girlfriend does, and I have an mp3 player in my phone too, but for some reason this hasn't made the jump into bringing it running with me and then halfway through the run I get bored and irritated by jangling keys and wish I had it.
