So my favorite part of magazines is the "________ in numbers" section. No matter the subject, I always love learning the random facts that are posted there. This morning as I ran, I first noticed the number of different kinds of birds that I saw and the rest of the time I spent noticing different things that I could count in different ways. So, without any further ado, here is my morning run in numbers:

It's amazing how much you can learn about something just from a numbers scale. That was really interesting to read.
