12 Hour Fast

NSV- Running!
Today, I was able to run 1 mile- without any walking breaks! And the coolest thing happened while I was running, I actually caught myself thinking about something else other than my feet, my breathing, how far I was going, or if I was going to make it. I was able to run and just lose myself in it :smile: I feel like I have…
