#2 Hidden benefits of running
Konstantin Starodetskii
A second episode of the UNCONSCIOUS THOUGHTS series, where I contemplate the wonderful benefits of running.
When I feel stuck or need some fresh ideas, I go for a run. It’s a powerful tool. It brings your body and mind to their best shape, so you are ready to conquer the day and the world. Early morning, before the sun showed up. I ran up to the top of the Mt. Hollywood. A majesty of nature in its full power revealed itself to me.
A stream of clouds was moving over the mountain like large white waves lit by the freshly risen sun. The view was a pure wonder. All my worries, disappointments, and failures felt so insignificant. As a bonus, I got a solution to one of my stories that I was struggling with. It felt like I’ve visited another world or even a universe. It supercharged me with its enormous energy.
So, go for a run. You never know what miracle you’ll discover.
