Nekkid, naked … whatever

✴︎

5.24.2010

Over on Daily Mile there’s been a lot of talking of running naked … no, not that kind of naked. It’s just about going watchless. I usually make it a point after hard training to go without my Garmin for a run or two, but it’s definitely been a while. So tonight, a quarter mile into my run, I wasn’t feeling it. I wanted to turn around and just call it a night. But instead I just turned my watch off and ran 4 miles.
No worries about pace or how much farther I had to go … I ran … because I can. I don’t do that enough, and I can guarantee that most of you out there don’t either. Try it sometime — it’s not so bad.

It didn't even cross my mind, but you are probably correct that most of us don't ever do it. Must be liberating…

I agree, doing atleast one nekkid run a week is good for the soul.

Hm, I really should try running naked more. My short distances are always naked, I just don't care about how far I run for, but for certain distances, I'm still training. I think having a watch helps, but since I don't have a garmin, I can only judge distance by how many loops I do around this path.
