Like if I’m chugging uphill, it’s easier for me to put my head down and focus on the individual steps. But if I’m in a flat area, and there’s a nice view, of course I’ll look around! I also have started to warm up to the camaraderie of fellow runners/walkers. When passing someone there’s always that brief wave and maybe a smile.

As for the pace, I usually like to set it, when the run or walk was my idea. If I’m doing something or going somewhere and I didn’t initiate it, I’m content to follow.

Good/bad, right/wrong? I have no idea. =)

But I guess I can use the same answer: It’s who I am.
