Every Wednesday, the Deb from Deb Runs will be providing a word about which to blog. Kind of like a nice little blog prompt. Posts can be fitness or health related, but don’t have to be, so really anyone can play along. Just be sure to link up with InLinkz on Deb’s main post, and share the love by reading and commenting on other’s participant’s posts.
This week’s word is PEACE.
I found some quotes that relate PEACE to running and they say it better than I could.
Maybe not in a crowded race with lots of distractions, but when I run alone and especially after a tough day, running does bring me PEACE.

Running is not about only about PRs and age group awards. If you don’t run with your heart, you are missing out on some very important things.
Happy Running! Does running give your peace? Do you run with your heart?

Running definitely brings an all-over inner peace, which you probably don’t realize you have until you are forced to take a break. 😀

Running definitely gives me peace — often — and oftentimes when I’m most troubled, running alone brings me a lot of peace.
