When Im Running

When I am running
no one can see
whats in my past
whats happened to me

When I am running
I am on cloud nine
I do it for myself
its something that is mine

When I am running
on my own I get bored
but with a group
personal bests I have scored

When I am running
I don't have to care
how I look
clothes, make up or hair

When I am running
I have such fun
out in all weather
wind, rain and sun

When I am running
training for the 10k
the goal I have in mind
ia for the woman's race in may

Love this! Your passion for running out weighs everything else...at that second. Nice introspection :)
