    I RUN.... Late, mostly.

    However, I also run to keep up with my son, and I run so that I'm not "that mom" who walks two blocks behind, huffing and puffing, waving at the kids as she tries to keep them out of traffic while not having the breath to keep up with them to make sure they're safe.
