for health


I followed my friend on instagram as she ran 100 miles this weekend. 100! It was amazing. The human body is a marvelous thing. I might not have run that many miles, but I am grateful for my own body, just the same. It accomplishes all that I ask of it, with strength and endurance, and I am so thankful. Lately I have felt gratitude for my health inch out all thoughts of inadequacy or negative body image, and I am thankful for that, too. It only took me 36 years, but I think I am finally comfortable in my own skin.

  1. Cari was amazing, wasn't she? The whole time she was running I kept thinking how her body carried and birthed five children, and then ran 100 miles. The human body is an amazing machine.
