The power of running. No wonder our little forum is getting bigger monthly with these great articles. Nearly 9,000 new runners in the making in the last three months.

Depression, anxiety, OCD - running helped us beat them bbc.co.uk/news/in-pictures-...

Yes, inspiring article. Starting to run is challenging enough, even without the issues that those people were facing.

Over the years on here I have seen so many people change their lives on here. One of the reasons I love these forums is that is full of people just like that, just as inspirational but they just don’t see it, one of the reasons these forums are as good as they are. 😀.

Thank you for posting this RFC, I don’t have access to articles like this over here in NZ thats why this forum is a lifesaver for me. Extraordinary, but ordinary people, like all of us here. Really inspiring, go us.
