I wish there was any area to run around my house, I don't even like going out to check the mail.. Ok.. So it's not really that bad, but not going for a run by myself around here anytime soon.Breaking Pacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15455031458977055268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2280571059554402649.post-70735919585915603712010-12-17T23:40:31.445-06:002010-12-17T23:40:31.445-06:00I am in the same boat!

My new neighborhood with every detour possible taken is only 3 miles! <br />I found a path that made me happy, then everyone starts with the stories of how many people have been raped and attacked.

I can add on the neighborhood to the left and the neighborhood to the right (both with awful sidewalks) and I might get to 3.5 miles... thus, I rarely run in my own neighborhood.

I am sorry you feel stuck...I don't think that is weird at all to want to drive somewhere else to run, I say do it. I love how exact you are....3.64 miles ha! I cannot get myself to keep running the same loop. <br />The Christmas ball sounds so fun, sorry the party was lame this year. Love the dodgeball story. P.S. I really am like a five year old! I love that we leave such long comments for each other. It is my favorite, I feel like we are real life friends ha!The Hungry Runner Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12506381626195673826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2280571059554402649.post-58059515878463283122010-12-17T12:22:24.447-06:002010-12-17T12:22:24.447-06:00I hate running in my neighborhood, too.

I can venture out further on foot, but it involves too many stop lights. <br /><br />The worst thing about winter is it's too dark after work to hit my favorite trail, which has zero lights on it.

Thanks. Just kidding! But in all seriousness, I feel your pain! I live in Manhattan! And while I have endless amounts of space to run, I seriously gave up on a 2 mile run one time because at 35 minutes, I still had only run a mile and a half! PEOPLE, CARS, STOP LIGHTS, TAXIS, DOGS, EVERYWHERE! It's horrible! And Central Park is wonderful but sometimes you don't want to have to take a 25 minute subway ride with 2 changes just to get to the park...and getting long runs in is hell because Central Park is about 6.5 miles around so training for the Philly Marathon meant between 3 and 4 loops around Central Park to get in a long run!
