I was a cross-country runner in high school. In my 30's I ran a 10k, and finished it! Throughout the years I have run the marathon, 1/2 marathon, 10 miler, 10k and 5k. I stopped running 2.5 years ago after a nasty spill messed up my knee. I started again, inspired by a friend who has now completed 10k miles (that is 10,000! - yay Barbara!). Running has been instrumental to my mental health in providing an outlet that refreshes (ok, tires out too!) body and mind. I run for all those friends and family who are dealing with acute or chronic mental health issues. Still I Run supports that and much more! ❤️
