There is many a time when I ask myself why? Why do I run?
I run to keep fit surely that’s it, yes that’s why I run, I run to keep fit
I run because that is what I do, we all do something, dont we? Don’t you?
I run because it makes me me, if I wasn’t a runner what else would I be?
I run because it helped me lose weight, I shed the pounds and I felt great
I run because I can do it for free, on open roads and cross country
I run to de-stress and come down from the day, pounding it out as it all fades away
I run for the challenge and running challenges me, trying each race to get a PB
and finally I ask myself why? why do I run?
Because hard or easy its fantastic and its fun!!
Why do you run?
