running TO something

My parents love to tell the story of when they would go to the running track when I was little, sit me down, and tell me to wait there and they would be back. Two seconds later I would be running after them not wanting to be left behind tears streaming down my face. My Mom has done a great job of finding places for me to run when I visit San Antonio and I'm really impressed with the changes SA is starting to make. I still can't run or bike from my parents front door but there are some nice greenways within a short drive. This past weekend my Mom told me about one called Salado Creek Greenway going from Huebner Road to Blanco Road. They decided to walk it while I ran it twice, it was perfect. It was a really nice greenway other than the fact that it had a sidewalk which made it less green to me. I was excited to be on a trail and am pretty impressed with this latest effort by SA. While I was running I was thinking about how I am still running with my parents and how it is better to be running TO something versus FROM something. And I am running to something. Then it was my parents now it is a happy self so I have to thank my parents for taking me to the track when I was little and teaching me how to run to something.
