The Run as Commute

Tonight I took the advice of Beverly from the Nike Running Station to try running home from work. Technically, I ran home once before, but that was during the transit strike and more of a necessity because of Roger Toussaint. The best part of running home is it only took me about 15 minutes more compared to the subway. Running through the Village isn't so bad, although the crowded sidewalks aren't ideal. The distance is about perfect. And, you know, there's something nice about the idea of not just leaving work, but running from it.
