Secret NYC Sun chasing society in progress. I ran 1 hour and ten minutes this AM…

I figured out a few things today:

#1 – 2010 is the year of ME.  It has my name all over it.

#2 – If my hands are warm my body is warm.

#3 – The sun increases my serotonin levels a lot more than most other humans.

Concluded actions:

Today I tucked my hands into my sleeves and I chased the sun.  I didn’t care if my route was all twisted and I didn’t care if I went too long.  I cared about one thing: Not running in the shaded freezing streets.

Guess what – it worked.  I had a pretty sunny run on a pretty not-so-sunny day.

I also had a brilliant idea.  My first moment of brilliance of 2010:

What if all runners could join a network of sun chasers? What if you marked yourself with this specific red and green striped headband that I created for NYC runners? and basically all we did for each other was give each other tips on where the sun is on really cold days.

So if I’m running back from the East River and it was especially sunny on 23rd street and I see someone wearing that red and green headband (that says “i run this place”) running East… I could just be like “23rd street!!” and they will automatically know that I mean “the sun is on 23rd street right now ”

It’s like a secret society… ish…

OK… HELP! How do I start a secret society?
