National Running Day


Held annually on the first Wednesday in June - National Running Day is a day to get inspired and motivated, to celebrate the reasons and people that make running a special part of their lives. National Running Day is for everyone! It is a way for longtime runners to reaffirm their love of running and for beginners to kick off a life changing commitment.

 National Running Day is a day where runners everywhere declare their passion for running. I have to say that I run for so many reasons!
 
I run...
 
to feel free
 
to feel alive
 
for my sanity
 
for those who can't
 
for good health
 
to feel the rush of endorphins
 
to help control my weight
 
to eat
 
to be an example for my family & friends
 
because my boys are watching
 
to be apart of such a supportive community
 
because it makes me feel strong
 
to honor myself and how far I have come
 
to feel awesome
 
to learn to love my body
 
to see what I am capable of
 
to find myself
 
to inspire others
 
to be a better me
 
because I AM WORTH IT!
 
 
 
 Those are just some of the reasons why I love running! If you are a runner I am sure that some of them may be the same for you but you probably have other reasons why you run as well.
Why do you run?
 
How are you planning to celebrate National Running Day? I am trying to take it easy so my leg starts to feel better-  but I may just have to get out there for an easy run to celebrate!
