    For me, running is my time of the day. No distractions, my mind can wander, no noisy gym, I enjoy the scenery and my dog padding along with me.

    Once I get past the first 2 miles, I feel like I can go forever.

    Some runners may have poor body image, but overall I would say they don’t. Talk to a runner and they will tell you how good it makes them feel.
