RUN 21

Running i think is like taking a train instead of flying, when you fly you don't get to experience the places you're traveling through in the same way as you do from a train. I look for opportunities in my daily life to make running a part of my life rather than a specific workout for a specified period of time. If you can run where you need to go rather than driving or taking a bus, why not do that?! you get your workout and you get to experience the place you live or are traveling much more closely. Which is partly why i dislike treadmills so much, the focus there is purely on improving physical fitness, which in itself is fine, but the treadmill offers nothing of the world and people around us, the connections and experiences that are out there waiting for us to become part of, if we just put one foot in front of another.
