Honk if you love_______

Funny how some folks react to runners. Two days in a row people who know me have honked their horn at me....not just a tap but a healthy honk! Don't they know how that impacts a runner? I Jumped outta my skin! What...wha...wah...what? Oh, just saying hi! Maybe they could tap it or I could get over it!
40 minutes again today! I've already got my 150 minutes in this week so I will take Saturday and Sunday off. Maybe my Achilles can heal even more!
I sure am thankful to be back on the road. Hope you have a great weekend! Peace

I absolutley hate it when drivers honk their horn at me when they just want to say "Hi". I run from work a lot and get this often. You said it, jump right out of my skin.

The other one is when they honk or wave and expect me to know who it is. Apparently they don't realize I cannot see inside thier dark car in bright sunshine gleaming off their window or paint. But I Digress.

They have to know it's going to startle us, but people still do it. I guess they just can't resist having a reason to use their horn.

Enjoy your rest days! They were well earned!

Hey like your new blog design : )

PS. I still get a few honks... but usually its because I'm running down the yellow line.

      This is the most wonderful time of year! I love the heat and humidity! Yet I still get out earlier due to my advanced age! 4.4 miles! ...
