Halloween is WICKED AWESOME

Aside from getting to wear a costume, there are other things that I love about Halloween (ok, this list/post is pretty random, but the links are related to running, exercise, nutrition, and ummm):

1. Pumpkins... they're fun to carve, good for you, and make good bikes
2. Apples... they're a much better addition to salads (arugula anyone?!?) than bananas, and candy apples are awesome (especially funfetti ones... wow wow wow!!!), and so is apple crisp, and apple pie, and really apple anything... plus, climbing trees is good cross training
3. Candy... funfetti... all the simple sugars that a runner could ever need!
4. Leaves... I guess they're nice to look at, but they're even better for JUMPING IN!
5. Running away from monsters, zombies, etc.
