Yesterday I ended up having to go back to the grocery store for some forgotten ingredients. Claire and I had just returned from the gym so I was attired in my finest Bosque Volleyball t-shirt, shorts and tennis shoes and I decided I would just run to the store. FUNNEST THING EVER. Generally, I'm not a big fan of running but in the city running is less like exercise and more like a game. Honestly, I finally understand why people race cars. It's like putting together a real-life moving puzzle. As I ran in and out of people I tried to make it so that I disturbed no one, as if I didn't even exist on that street. When I got cut off, I'd have to instantly regroup and find another way around the crowd. Then when I happened upon a red light I would have to wait with everyone else at the light (people we're shocked when they saw me appear out of thin air on the corner) but as soon as it turned I would sprint ahead and once again disappear.
Needless to say, it was the most thrilling grocery store run I've ever done.
