Surround yourself with people that make you happy and that have similar interests. As far as your running goes, I think that you are being very smart about that too.

We are both in the post-undergrad stage, and its an awkward age. Some people are still stuck in partying mode, and others want to move on and grow up. Although I still party occasionally, my friends know my running is a priority. It took a lot of time, but they now don't question me when I head home at 10pm because I have a long run in the morning. I've made it clear they have to be friends with the entire me, not just the facet they want to be friends with.Frayed Laceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08055135998797939473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25824302.post-60510206922900407152008-08-02T08:22:00.000-04:002008-08-02T08:22:00.000-04:00Hang in there.

When you truly know and accept that YOU are the person to please in YOUR life things get SO much easier. And the fact of the matter is that the people that you think you are going to cut out or loose were gone a while ago! (you will also be in a better place when you meet THE man!)<BR/>Run when you can and keep up the strength training! That will keep your knee tracking correctly and keep it healthy!<BR/>Take careMollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04956917918263569111noreply@blogger.com
