The Freedom of Running

Posted by orionstarr May 9, 2008



"We run, not because we think it is doing us good, but because we
enjoy it and cannot help ourselves...The more restricted our society and
work become, the more necessary it will be to find some outlet for this
craving for freedom. No one can say, 'You must not run faster than
this, or hump higher than that.' The human spirit is
indomitable."
Sir Roger
Bannister


Running is freedom, which is a great way of looking at it. There are those days when you just feel drained from a long day of work and deadlines and you can't seem to muster up the confidence to get a run in. I suggest going anyway. Because you can create energy by burning energy. Running will give you energy and a sense of freedom. A freedom where you can escape your daily stresses, you'll find yourself cleansed and recharged after such a run. Even though just an hour before you felt like you couldn't do it.

I love to run, I love music. When you combine them you can go for miles... This is a blog about my running experiences and what drives me. Running is a foundation in my life and is apart of who I am.
