I can understand that quote from Eric Liddell, “When I run, I feel God’s pleasure.” \u00a0I haven’t seen the movie about him yet, Chariots of Fire, but I really want to, because I love playing the music on the piano, and I respect the story of Liddell.<\/p>\n
And do you know, my friend with the beautiful hair, she was right!! \u00a0Running every day eased and soothed my pain during the time-of-the-month discomfort. \u00a0So long as I went running each day, I hardly even noticed the time-of-the-month.<\/p>\n
One thing that is imperative, though, when you run, is to stay hydrated. \u00a0If I don’t have a good quart or more of water in me, I Don’t Go Running. \u00a0I have noticed, too, that when I run indoors on a treadmill, and the temperature is warmer, I become\u00a0more quickly aware of that choking, stuffy feeling of “I NEED WATER NOW,” \u00a0When I open the windows, though, that feeling is somewhat alleviated.<\/p>\n
Too, you need good shoes. \u00a0I have a friend who was a track star in high school and university, and she said that New Balance shoes are what she prefers. \u00a0I have found that New Balance shoes always fit me correctly, and, yes, I do like them. \u00a0I especially like the fact that some of them are made in the USA.<\/p>\n
However, I am addicted to running so much that I will run in any shoes that are comfortable enough!!<\/p>\n
