(Don't tell that to cab drivers or cars or busses, though, because it's always a battle for who rules the road. =D )<br /><br />Ahh, the PCH! One of my dream destinations to run, too! But you are so right about the beauty of runners being connected to each other. Anytime I meet someone, even a perfect stranger, and find out that they are a runner, it's like we are instant friends with tons to talk about. It's an incredible community and we are so blessed to be a part of it.emmers712https://www.blogger.com/profile/15865493476823978890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3081872231855122210.post-69269838773208990772013-08-12T11:19:40.824-05:002013-08-12T11:19:40.824-05:00Chicago looks like such a runner-friendly place. (...Chicago looks like such a runner-friendly place. (Moreso than many other big cities.) Today on my run I was thinking about a recent podcast I listened to where the commentator mentioned running along the Pacific Coast Highway. And here I was trudging along through dusty old El Paso. Pretty much the opposite of the PCH. But it made me think of the beauty of the connectedness of runners. No matter where you are in the world, someone else is running somewhere else seeing something else, but probably feeling the same way you are.
