Today I over heard people talking about why would anyone run, on purpose. A friend/co-worker ran a 50K yesterday, she started telling me about the run and when she started to notices some aches and pains. A gal said "Why would you do that on purpose." I use to be right their with her thinking.
Danielle use to tell me I should start running, and I promptly asked her whom would be chasing me and with what? Everytime I saw someone running I thought wow to be that athletic, that would be awesome. Well I decided to give it a try. and I love it. Just don't ask me that while I am running. :o)
I run because of the challenge, the way my heart races, the way I breath feels, the way I am in control, the way it clears my mind, the way I feel so alive afterwards and the sense of achievment. Oh and I want to lose weight :o) You can run for the same reason or for your own, everyone is different.
I run because I can!
Checking out your blog --- I love this post! The reason to run is so different for everyone and the same for many. I started running to lose weight and kept going because it kept it off. :)
