    I RUN to think.
    I RUN to feel whole.
    I RUN to look back and see how far I've come.

    For the last one in both senses, after 11 years of running it helps to remind myself that when I first started a mile was challenging and my goal was to lose weight. All the consistency and hard work I put in over the years goes into those long runs. Now I can start in the heart of Chicago run to Northwestern University in Evanston and look at the skyline of where I started. It's a cool moment that always feels a little shocking, and makes me feel a little dangerous and bad *kitten*. But it all started with one night I decided to start and not give up.

    I run away from my anxiety and depression.

    I run because it is the only thing that makes me feel normal.

    I run very slowly

    I run like a girl

    I run because I like the post run, sweaty, I accomplished something I never thought I could, feeling.
