More Than Running!

As you know I have committed to running, walking, skipping, jumping...doing something for at least one mile outside everyday.  Today is January 20 and I have gone 19 straight days and it feels

GOOD!

However, it's not all about running or even moving.  Last night I was out running around 11:30 at night.  The sky was clear, the moon - while not full - was bright as were the stars...oh yeah...and Jupiter!  I was out on a lonely country road all by myself.  The night was very quiet - except for the cow (or horse - it was dark I couldn't tell) who snorted at me.  I believe I surprised him as much as he surprised me!

THE NIGHT WAS SOOOOO BEAUTIFUL

And that is the added benefit of what I am doing...clearing my mind and enjoying life for life itself.

What GREAT therapy!

Being under the stars just gets you in touch with nature, a higher being, the universe...whatever you want to call it.  It gave me

ENERGY

and renewed my spirit.

Try it sometime...not necessarily running at night but just go outside on a nice quiet, clear night and stare at the sky.

AMAZING!
