For the love of the run

RunningHeart2

In the spirit of Valentine’s Day, David & Scott over at RunChat are once again encouraging runners to share what they love about running. I participated last year and it’s fun to go back and see the 10 reasons I posted then — I would say none of those reasons have changed.

A relationship with running ebbs and flows, has its highs and lows – at any time your answer to the question “What do you love about running?” can be different. Right now, I love to run because:

— it has taught me to have more patience with myself

— it continues to show me that I am stronger than I think I am

— it keeps me balanced – it truly is good for my soul

— it reminds me that I can redefine what’s possible

 

What is it that you love about running?

  1. This is how I feel about yoga! My husband feels this way about running. Unfortunately, he had surgery in November and has been slow to get back to running.

    I saw your comment on Clover Lane on the 40 Bags post, I love Sarah’s 40 Bags idea and I NEED to do it! I am hosting a link-up on my blog. Normally, I would not ever copy someone’s idea, but since Sarah is not doing it, I asked her if she would mind. Please feel free to stop by and link-up your blog. Doesn’t have to be a particular post–maybe we can all offer each other encouragement to keep filling those bags and decluttering!

  2. It makes me smile!

  3. I love running because I think it brings out my true character. Oh and it keeps my cholesterol down too.

  4. Running makes me feel better…for my mind and my body. It allows me to be the best person I can be. Have a wonderful day. Your blog looks terrific!!

  5. It shows me how truly capable i am!
