One of the things I love the most about running is finding change on the street. Talk about your simple pleasures! I ran late this morning (David is kind enough to take the first shift on non-work days) and found a nickel. I was stoked. It was even on a street that I had not found money on before today.
The day after Thanksgiving netted a whole $1.38, all in change. I found it in three separate locations.
One of the only things I like about running in cooler weather is that my winter running pants have zippered pockets for change. When I wear shorts I end up storing change in my sports bra which can make me kind of jingly.
David and I usually both find at least a penny when we run (this is only weekend running- when I run early during the week it is too dark to spot money- except for the time when I was 6 months pregnant and found a 5 dollar bill).
I hope this post give you an idea of the mundane things that excite me that I know no one else gets excited about!
How about you? What mundane things get you excited?
