Mindful Running

I am never more aware of a moment than during a run. Every stride of the run syncs with each breath.

It doesn’t mean I am no longer encountered by random thoughts in my head but in that moment somehow it is easier for me to acknowledge them and move forward. They don’t stick. And if I do get distracted here are two questions that help me get my focus back:

  • How am I breathing?
  • Where am I looking?

Running is mindfulness.
