Are you an Insider or are you an Outsider? They're both cool. It's just interesting to *think* about these things. This is also about community, society, and run clubs.
I think I zone out AND lock in, sometimes alternating many times per run. The more goal-oriented my running is, the harder I find it to chill out and just run. That's when I have to remind myself it's okay to just be outside moving, with no expectations.

Locked in to the zone...?
I've done both - music & no music. I enjoy both, but I prefer to run with music. I've found that once I zone out, I lock in on what I need to.
Yeah! Sounds a lot like a mindful meditation, for instance. Clear a bunch of mental rubble out in order to focus on something in particular.
Well said!
