Running soothes me

Serenity Sunday 2: Running is peaceful. Lacing up the shoes, setting the timer on my watch, grabbing my ipod, and taking off; the whole process is soothing. When I run, I think. Sometimes I don't think. I let go of things that bother me and sink into the music to find my rhythm. I close my eyes and take in deep breaths of the sun or the frost lately. Running relieves my stress and gets rid of any anger. I can't completely explain the feeling I get when I run, but it's almost as if I escape reality. No one has to know where I am going. I don't take my phone. I literally run away from life. My life isn't bad at all, but it's nice to escape reality. You know what I mean if you are a runner, or maybe you have something that takes you to the same place. If you don't, you should find something.
