Love You Like A Love Song.

All the other kids with the pumped up kicks you'd better run, better run, outrun my gun.
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks you'd better run, better run, faster than my bullet.

All the other kids with the pumped up kicks you'd better run, better run, outrun my gun.
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks you'd better run, better run, faster than my bullet.

Tonight I realised that I am in a long-term, very serious and terribly committed relationship with running. I would rather spend a Friday night running, feeling that wind blow at my back, powering up a hill and cruising down the other side... feeling beautiful in every inch of my skin. I crave the 16's, 18's, 20's... I crave the anticipation, the struggle and the moment my body settles in and my legs move without thinking.

Running really is the perfect mate.
