I received the loveliest message from an old friend
yesterday, about how I inspired her through my own running and how she has now
run three half marathons of her own! Wow, what chills that ran up and down my
spine and throughout my body after hearing that. If I could inspire one person
from before I even began blogging just through photos on social media, then how
many souls can I touch now? I did not expect to rub off on someone in such a
profound way (yes profound, I find running to be the most exhilarating,
calming, and refreshing part of my own life.)
I have always been an open and my
sister would say big-hearted, so the ultimate goal in my life has always been
in one way or another to help others and touch other people in a positive way. Running
is a great outlet for that; in my personal life and my work life others are
always questioning about what and why I am eating certain things, when I am
running, how my races are, etc. and there have even been friends and co-workers
inspired to try running themselves! It can only do good and bring positivity
into their lives, and they will see how they are transformed in every dimension
of their lives.
When I run I am more patient, more kind, loving of nature and
animals, more positive, the list is endless. To wrap this little post up: give
running a shot. No matter how fast or slow, or how long the distance it is
still running and will always do good for your well being and your soul. Keep at
it, it does not come easy but will feel amazing when you are done.
Keep running, friends :)
