Trees and Trails

I had the most wonderful run the other day. It’s been a very long time since I’ve had that kind of experience and it was encouraging.  I’ve spent the better part of the last couple of decades injured on and off and it was such a pleasure to enjoy the entire hour, on the trails and in my head.  I will always marvel at how something like a simple run can elevate ones mood and outlook.  It really is the ultimate therapy.  Powerful on every level.

I’ve been attending the Fitness Table workouts in Calgary and I have to say that I’m a believer.  As one of my athletes said recently – it’s the real deal. Healing from the inside-out.  Having spent a great deal of time with my ‘therapy/medical team’ in the past, I’m so happy to have found this particular process and the expert instruction I receive.  We work carefully on exercises that – from the outside – don’t look like much of anything, but they are.  The little muscle groups that have had amnesia for who knows how long, are all slowly waking up.

I’m not completely out of the woods, and may never be – but I sure appreciate the free flow of a good run on the trails – and look forward to the next one.

LiveSplendidly!
