MapMyRun.com - Regular Run: Regular Run on 01/01/2011

First day of the year, first run of the year, first blog of the year...first blog ever!  I've decided to develop a new diversion for myself (like I need another one) and try blogging.  I know it's not a new concept but one that is brand new to me, and now is  the time to try something new.

My vision is to create a blog that incorporates my love of running and how I seem to be able to relate running to all aspects of my life.  I've not always been a runner, took it up about 3 years ago following the birth of my 5th son.  While pushing him in the baby jogger, a quiet thought occurred.  "Maybe I can run.  I am after all pushing a baby jogger that was built for running...maybe there's some transfer that might occur from the jogger to me."

So I ran (sort of) and the transformation began.

Three plus years later on the first day of this year 2011, I logged 6.99 miles on a warm sunny January morning.  I am usually the only one out there in my neck of the woods, but today I came upon two runners at two separate times.  We exchanged hellos and Happy New Year's and found that we know one another from here or there.  Nice to see other people taking advantage of the new year. 

In each blog, I'll try to include my running for the day and a song with "run" in the title-just for fun.  I'd love to hear from anyone out there!  Got a great run, great route, great running song???

Today's running song (song with the word run in it!) is:  Bryan Adams-Run to You http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gF5LaVkDhyk
