Running

Do you ever feel like just running?
Running and I have a love hate relationship.
I love running, my friends laugh at me... Because I always want to run at the weirdest times, Like 3am in the morning or when it is pouring rain outside.
But running does NOT love me. When I run even for 5 or 10 minutes my feet hurt so badly... I have been cursed with these EXTREMELY high arches. Which I have a bad habit of bruising, Take my word for it, Not fun.

So with that being said.
There are times that I just want to turn and start running. Like Forest Gump,
Just take of running. This feeling actually came over me earlier this week. I was around alot of people, nothing weird happened.
I just suddenly had this urge to stand up, and run for my life and not stop.
I always fight this. Talking myself out of it
"Ok, Kathleen... you are NOT going to run away... why would you do that? how irresponsible. it doesn't make sense."

But I always wonder what would happen... what would it be like to suddenly just run out of a room. and just keep running.
Part of me REALLY wants to be one of those carefree, spontaneous kind of person.
But I am too responsible, too level-headed

I have the same feeling about driving... Sometime I just want to get in my car, fill her up. And drive until I almost out of gas... I've figured it out I could get about 350 miles away before needing to stop.

Am I the only person who "plans" for a spontaneous trip? I have to think about when I am off work, do I already have plans?
Why can't I just call in and say I am sick one day... and just run away.
I don't know what it is... maybe the lameness of Spartanburg.

But I hope one day I can put all of my thoughts and "fears" aside and just take off. Be free.
I get crazy when I feel caged in.
But one day I won't be able to talk myself out of it.
The weather will be perfect and I will just take off.

But no worries... I'll be back. I am to "mature" to leave it all behind.
