As I set out tonight I just thought to myself, 'Deano, running is a gift.'
Going along the roads in the dark and ice cold, I treated my run with the reverence it deserved. How lucky are we to run? 1 mile or 10, fast or steady it doesn't matter. Running is our gift to ourselves and I'm going to do my best to remember every time I lace up. 🙏
Absolutely!
An excellent approach to what we can all do 👍
Completely agree! When I started the c25k last January after a long injury, I savoured every minute of running, grateful I was able to run again. I liked your post, it’s a great reminder that we are v lucky to be able to run, and the desire to get out there!
Yes, you make the most of it. Getting back to running after an injury lay off is special 👌. I could only run for 2 minutes every third day but it was golden 🤩
Absolutely yes!! I tell myself the same thing every time
You’re so right GTFC. I often think that actually. How lucky are we? Happy running to you! 🙏🏻😃
Oh, this sentiment most definitely resonates.😊Nice one, GTFC !
And no better gift could we give ourselves
A lovely sentiment and so true!
It is! I'm so grateful that I went on the c25k journey and can do something I never felt capable of before. I am not doing any running at the moment but just knowing I can and will is amazing.

I couldn’t agree more, I felt the exact same thing this morning. Even when I got too hot and nearly slipped over 🤣. It’s brilliant 🤩.
A gift we can keep unwrapping time and time again 😁
You are just so fab GTFC , thanks for this reminder!
You're very right, I might need to remind myself sometimes 😁
There were go again! 💥 Unbelievable Xx
Absolutely- I get this every morning when I manage to do a sunrise run - yes I’m slow back of the pack runner - but the pure thrill of being alive in that moment gets me every time 💕💕
The back of the pack is where it’s at! 💪👊✊
After recently coming off the injury couch for the second time I am in full appreciation mode & very grateful to be able to run, even if I am having to keep it short & slow for now 😊
My fave running quote so far:
'Running is a favour your body does for your soul'
So true. How come it took me until I got to 60 to try it?
Better late than never 🙂👍. Like you, I left it late, but am making up for lost time 🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️
I agree 🙂👍
I was out walking today but was so darned cold I broke out into a jog. Handily, I was wearing my running gear 🤷♀️😁
