My running was very simple; it was out of myself.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
With the case of running, it really is a case of get out, set yourself a distance, run it, and then do it again the next day. It's tremendously simple.
Running started as a way of relaxing. It's the only time I have to myself. No phones or e-mails or faxes.
The great thing about running is that you can get away to your own thoughts and get in a little bubble.
Running gave me a focus to start looking after myself, to eat properly, and focus on building up my strength.
I received the best advice for running I ever heard: 'You're not going to win, so just relax. If it feels like work, you're running too hard.'
I have been running since I was 7. I was trying to restructure the way my body was made instead of trying to master the way I ran. I would get so frustrated with my starts in practices that I would just cry. When I ran, I wouldn't even try to get out of the blocks, I would just run.
My running style was kind of just head-on, because I couldn't dance.
People are so easily impressed by running, but I run pretty frequently.
Running doesn't come easy to me, especially the first thirty or so minutes. My message is take it one step at a time.
Running alone is the toughest. You get to the point where you have to keep pushing yourself.
