The Sound Of Running

Do you dare to run Alone?

No music
No voices
No headphones
No Distractions
Just Presence of Mind, breath and steps.

This is the Sound of Running

Its the silent whispers from your first waking breath to your first yawn as you rise from bed

It’s in the doting dialogues playing out in your head
Moments of mixed feelings that question the purpose of the pursuit that lies ahead

It’s in the tying of your shoe laces and the first steps you take as you open the door
As you anticipate the freedom of what you’re about to explore

It’s in the chirping and tweeting of early birds before the rising sun, ready to catch their first worm
A Partridge in a Pear tree singing you it’s morning song
Saying ‘Welcome, This is Your Run’

It’s in the gentle gust of wind brushing against your skin in agreement with your motion
Heart racing, feet pacing, Goal Chasing full of emotion

It’s in the breath work of strength and exasperation
A series of events happening in one location

It’s in the unending conflicts and agreements between mind and body

This is the ultimate playlist of a run

It starts with you, it’s all around you and it’s happening for you

If you would take a moment to stop and listen, give yourself a chance to dance to the sound of your rhythm

Run to the beat of Your heart



Love & Miles,
Stephanie
