    Do you have a secret for turning a boring long run into something at least a little more fun?

    Run on a trail, preferably with lots of elevation change. Never, ever, gets boring :D

      Yup-- if your attention drifts a little on the trail, you'll soon be in the dirt! No chance for boredom!

      Great run, Alex-- take care of that knee! A few months ago I picked up a pair of the knuckle lights, another alternative to headlamp.

      thanks all :) about the knee: i think i need to get some new shoes and do strength training on the legs again. whenever i let the latter one slip i start noticing the knee again.
      @joanette & @vern - might just have to get some sort of light. sounds fun :)
