byLarry EderThis is the second month of Spring, in the time of the coronavirus. This will be a lasting memory in your lives. Stay calm. When you feel anxious, take five, long, deep cleansing breaths through your mouth. Hold it, counting One Mississippi, two Mississipi, up to five, then, release. Then, five deep breaths through your nose, holrd it, five count, and release, it will help.
Do workout on own. Vary runs and shoes. If you need a new pair of shoes, order from local running store on line. Support the local economy.
Social distance. Enjoy the run. Savor the time outside. Remember, you are alive.
