Maybe that is why things felt so good this morning, not that every run is that way, but getting out there has an impact not only physically but mentally and spiritually.

    First Recovery Walk

    ByTim Nolte
    I’ll be honest, this morning was a hard place to be. I should be thankful that I was able to get out the door and get some steps in. It was just hard to enjoy a 50 minute walk when you’re coming from a normal pace of 3x the distance in that time. I know…
