Running Shoes

My running shoes. Symbolizes what needs to change, but exercise, running, walking, just exercise makes you feel so much better. It can be a good habit that can replace a bad habit. Before the problems occurred, I went from running marathons and running races and now I want to get that back. I have had so much stress lately, like a year and a bit ago my husband lost his company, everything. It was too much to handle and I was training for Boston so I said screw it, I’m not going. Huge financially and emotionally draining. This could educate people about the benefits of physical exercise when you are going through difficult times and don’t put it on the side burner. It would have helped me through this past year more. There are a few times I have ran a few miles and feel so much better. But when I quit running I started smoking and they do not go hand in hand. All the people and physicians don’t push people hard enough, that could be something they could do better. My Dr. pushed me to stop smoking, going to the gym and got me running before I quit running.
