Yo run gang,
News stories of civil war, natural disasters and political conflict seem to compete with the mental energy needed to get through the normal day to day difficulties of life (bills, family issues, health ...) It's more essential than ever that we shut it all down, lace em up, and blast out the door into the natural world. Our daily run allows us to refresh our brain and body like a much needed shower, ready to take on the world again.
Planning running events and setting goals for our future gives us focus and the additional motivation needed to break free from life's traps and gives us the confidence to make the daily run a priority. Take the time to make plans and set these goals ... do it now! A place to start, click here.
Run wild,
Randy Step, an obsessed runner who just finished a noon run wondering why the day that seemed so overwhelming this morning seems like a cake walk this afternoon.
