Now We Run

After reading Born to Run Wendy and I added running to our daily regiment. We both averted running until now thinking that it looked brutal. Now, having run about a mile a day for the last four, we are really enjoying it. We're going to try to build up to 20 minutes without a break and reach beautiful areas in nature that are nearby. This might prove to be our winter alternative to the pool being closed. Already we've named a few things we love about it, it's a great physical example of breaking through boundaries, it takes us to beautiful places outside, it reduces Sesames seizures, there's technique to try out we feel great.

Running is good, but I hear low-impact is better in the long run. I met this chemist teacher while backpacking one day in his 50's, he pretty much runs the entire thing, packing light. He takes a glucosamine for his joints.
