That's insane! I'd never run.
I try to space out but often end up thinking about my life, current problems and successes though rarely about the past or the future. Sometimes I do space out and lose a mile and it's nice.
Breath. Or Fitzgerald's proprioceptive cues. Or races.
I think about nothing
I breath and run,and I generally just space out, and usually I think about the purpose of life, and how much I would like to live in the woods.

OCD much?
Before I got a GPS watch, I thought about pretty much anything under the sun. The GPS has distracted me by helping me focus more on my breathing and cadence for each current pace I'm running.
I do the counting thing sometimes, usually when on the track. Other times I think about how to optimize training schedules. Often thinking about how to schedule 70 mile weeks, which is funny when I am only running 40 or 50 a week.
Usually have on the ipod but I will think of anything from dinner to training and anything in between.
naked chicks
I used to sort out my problems and be somewhat meditative on runs--just enjoying them. These days I just think about whether my hip will ever really heal. :(
I generally think about chicks I would like to nail. Sometimes I think about chicks I've already nailed.

My, you have an active imagination, don't you?

Yes. I guess this is your attempt at an insult. How was it for you?
I usually have bits of a song stuck in my head. I usually make up the lyrics for the parts I don't know. Other than that, I usually think about what I'm going to eat afterwards or if I'll see a portopotty to relieve myself.
Breathe in... breathe out... breathe in... breathe out...
I think about doing women from behind.
I think about running.
i think about what all the girls on the girls team look like naked, and then i imagine myself nailing them one at a time per mile. with the size of my shorts passing cars must gawk at my penis
girls. the pain. how i´d like my funeral to be. nothing. why i am here.
They did a survey many years ago, maybe it was Runner's World...and the answer is...
sex.
