Making Myself Better
Running challenge 9-11

9. What’s the strangest or most embarrassing thing that’s ever happened to you on a run?

When I ran track in high school, there was one meet where everything was relays, and I was a part of the hurdle relay. As I was landing after clearing the last hurdle, my ankle decided to dump me on the ground and I fell and scraped up my leg and had to hobble the last few steps to pass the baton.

It was also the same day as the final audition for All-State Chorus, which was ~2 hours south (they put it in the middle of the state). The bathrooms were all locked (how lame is that?), so I had to go behind it while my mom and my friend tried to shield me and change from my track uniform to a dress and pull hose over my scraped up leg.

The story gets even crazier, but it doesn’t relate to running, so I’ll leave it here.


10. Where do you run: treadmill, street, track, trail? And why do you prefer running there?

I usually either run on a paved (asphalt) running path in a couple different parks or through neighborhoods on roads & sidewalks. I get bored running in the same places, so I like to change it up.

I would love to do more trail running, but it’s not the type of thing you can do alone. :(
11. What kind of clothes do you run in? Actual running clothes or old t-shirts? Show us a picture!

I usually run in longish athletic shorts and tech shirts, but sometimes I just feel like a t-shirt instead.

If you want to see what I wear, you can find a lot of pictures in my run tag.
