It's a common term among my friends, "Music ADD." This essentially comes about when we're riding in the car, and whoever is riding shotgun and playing DJ, can't find a song to listen to for more than a couple of seconds, causing annoyance to all the other passengers. When I'm running, I often listen to the first thirty seconds of a song before skipping to the next one, because some how I convince myself that this makes the run end faster. Today I had an extreme case of music add, and treadmill boredom (a deadly combination) so I had to revise my rule, changing the song every ten seconds instead.
My music wasn't the only thing that was off today during my run. My brace has started to rub against my knee, causing a wonderful red wound (good thing I'll be home next week and get it re-fitted!), my shorts, for who knows what reason would not stop riding up, creating issues all around. It was a beautiful day out, but apparently I thought running in the fitness center would be better than the scorching sun outside, but the sauna like atmosphere in the gym was creating way more sweat than necessary. However, it was to my advantage that only three other people decided to exercise late Friday afternoon, meaning that not many experienced my awkward run.
I have high hopes for tomorrow. Now that classes are officially done for me, I really do have all the time in the world to work on my take home final, study for next Friday's exam, enjoy the sun, and run my little heart out.
