I run because... July 2-9

[northstar]

Because it makes me feel strong and powerful . . in all areas of my life. I know it sounds silly but when I encounter a difficult problem at work or home I've learned to "dig deep"

Yes. I just started a couple months ago and have had this exact feeling.

Because I'm doing a tri. Also because it's a very time efficient means to exercise. I'm not to the point where it's fun yet though I have "wow" moments where it is more energizing than not.

I am signed up for a duathlon this fall, and that's why I've begun running. The first few times out were not enjoyable, but I have improved immensely and am happy to say I am enjoying it. When the weather gets nice I get excited to get out and take advantage whenever I can.
