- Letting a friend pick the post-work run location and then accosting them for picking such a hilly route
- Creating To Do lists
- Constructive feedback from coworkers and friends
- Catching-up conversations over post-run beers while sitting outside
- Cheap sushi
- Conversations of substance that are both terrifying and fulfilling at the same time
- Watching my niece owning the stage, dancing and singing her heart out as no one watched. Her “stage” just happened to be framed by the open doors of the shed at my parents’ permanent campsite
- All of the sunshine
- Options and happenstance
- Feeling like I’m planning and moving forward with purpose
