But, some of us have physical limitations, so we HAVE to be satisfied with the "Run Happy" philosophy. (Mine is a defective heart valve...cardiologist says I can run all I want, just not to the point of chest pain, which equates to--bummer--speed.) But just reading your blog is going to get me away from my desk for a few minutes to go enjoy the sunshine and singing birds! Give that old heart valve a workout! Thank you for your always uplifting attitude!Queen Mum of Sparklehttp://www.sparkleskirts.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7078779410860350086.post-37052107545726483782012-03-15T05:44:07.367-05:002012-03-15T05:44:07.367-05:00Running fast makes me happy, but that's not th...Running fast makes me happy, but that's not the only way running can make me happy.

I was really worried about being able to hit my goal after reading about the experiences of others. That wasn't the case and I was able to RUN FAST and have an absolute blast. Since it was such a great time, I am thinking of running the Wine and Dine too! Good luck to you!<br /><br />Lisa @ Lisa Runs for CupcakesLisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12672176577661363185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7078779410860350086.post-70553044146837044172012-03-14T13:10:34.060-05:002012-03-14T13:10:34.060-05:00funny, i just did a post on running slow :-) i thi...funny, i just did a post on running slow :-) i think it can go both ways. i am certainly happy when i push myself and run fast, but perhaps it is more enjoyable to run slow. i am happy when i run in general i guess!Laura @ LunaChick Runshttp://lunachickruns.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7078779410860350086.post-2554863629349097702012-03-14T12:05:44.315-05:002012-03-14T12:05:44.315-05:00i guess i feel like somedays i have fun running fa...i guess i feel like somedays i have fun running fast and feeling that wow I did it...other days I have a lot of fun going slow noticing the world around me and just relaxing<br /><br />way to go on getting it done!!RunToTheFinishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13995696358152941044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7078779410860350086.post-32861892547140978022012-03-14T08:52:08.475-05:002012-03-14T08:52:08.475-05:00running (fast or slow) makes me happy! yay!

But then I always enjoy Disney races. I think in that instance you'll be able to run happy even though you may not be running fast.<br /><br />I think run fast = run happy AFTER the run. But when I truly run fast I'm not happy, there's no smile on my face, I'm working hard. So for me ultimately it's run fast OR run happy.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04176267681280039739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7078779410860350086.post-78141627430097798072012-03-13T20:41:34.943-05:002012-03-13T20:41:34.943-05:00Great run Jess!

And I love that I'm not the only crazy mum out there...my 13 year old particularly enjoyed that I ran by his school bus TWICE this afternoon in a tank top and tutu skirt! He just shook his head , smiled as he walked past me and said 'have a good run' . I like the quote. I really just love the run :)The Unexpected Runnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00467755895086463711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7078779410860350086.post-10551929376395493382012-03-13T16:23:02.455-05:002012-03-13T16:23:02.455-05:00i think it depends on the run!! i love that passi...i think it depends on the run!! i love that passion quote...beautifully said! oh yay for the wine and dine RunDisney! sounds fun and although it won't be a PR, it'll still be a race that you'll never forget!!!Marissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00935155587978160137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7078779410860350086.post-54605573367608032942012-03-13T15:54:16.114-05:002012-03-13T15:54:16.114-05:00I like both too, but I especially love to run fast...I like both too, but I especially love to run fast when there is a timing chip involved! Disney would be a good one to just run happily. I also think it would be fun to one day run a race with a friend for fun. Even when I run a race with friends now, I'm still in it for the time. Maybe with time, I'll get over that.Yo Momma Runshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02303930412601863052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7078779410860350086.post-21491642605045539572012-03-13T15:30:59.414-05:002012-03-13T15:30:59.414-05:00I agree with Heather - I think it depends on the d...I agree with Heather - I think it depends on the day. Sometimes I hate how I feel out there - especially when I'm mentally struggling (in the middle of the run) with what type of run I want it to be.

Of course, when you're doing scheduled tempos or speedwork, then it's a little less happy than if you had just gotten out there and had some pep in your step for the day ;-)Heather (Where's the Beach)http://wheres-the-beach.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7078779410860350086.post-64022843578251737192012-03-13T15:07:03.860-05:002012-03-13T15:07:03.860-05:00Awesome run!
