to feel free and alive

in sexy pants

because it's cheap therapy

faster than a speeding bullet

for my parents

to get rid of stress

to live

to get out of the house

to see the sunrise

on the waterfront

before my kids wake

Miami

with my girls

Atlanta

Eugene

with my dad

Boston

wicked fast

everywhere

when it's dark out

to eat!

Boulder

on trails

on the best team ever

after work

away from drama

till I drop

to the finish

on empty

up hills

like the wind

no matter what

for the gossip

'cause it's my job

better in my head

to stay in shape

all over the US

without fancy gizmos

in D.C.

like an Angry Bird

like Forrest

for good causes

to feel alive.

to be a better person

for myself

away all of life's worries.

for strength.

for sanity

for fun

for the joy of it!

in Jersey City!

in solitude

to be free

Brooklyn

like Pre

like a Clydesdale

Because I can.

to be closer to my Mom.

for my health.

because its cheaper than therapy!

To see what I'm capable of.

to escape!

New York

to clear my head

for my brother in Afghanistan.

EVERY DAY

por mi

con un gran equipo!

for Cancer

so I am the best mom I can be.

for meee

for life !

really fast!

by you

up to the pain

therefore I am.

To feel alive

to achieve Foxiness Maximus!

to make it to 100 years old.

to spend time with friends

because I love to.

to defy my age!

Minnesota's North Woods!

NYC, Baby!

for Team DetermiNation!

To finish my walk faster

for Mexico !!!!

so that my soul can fly.

because it's my salvation

because it's freedom.

so I can finish my first marathon!

FRANCE

to clear my head

because it works

why don't you?
