Summer Running

I moved downtown in May, which coincided with a stressful time in my life, so I took up running to explore my new surroundings and work out some tension. It's become a hobby that I really enjoy; I'm not sure what I'm going to do when it starts getting colder.

One of my favorite parts of running, other than the music, is the scenery. I love the historic neighborhoods near me and the urban landscape. I love Indy!

One negative is that I live right next to a train track that runs between my house and most of the area I like to run in, so occasionally, I get stranded and have to wait ten minutes for the train to pass by. One night I got home late and had just enough time to get in a quick run before the sun went down, but then this happened.

Indianapolis hosted the gymnastics national championships this summer, so while running that weekend I noticed one of the streets downtown got a name change.
