I’ve run thousands of miles and I’ve never worked out on a treadmill. I have a good reason for that: I love running outdoors.

Running for me isn’t about hitting the grind and burning calories. It’s an experience, it’s a joy, it’s a lifestyle choice.

Part of what I love about running is being outside and getting up close with nature. I run to improve my mental and physical health. More than that, I run to feel alive. I run for the buzz.

I started getting fit when I stopped running as a chore, and started to find the joy in moving my body.

When I’m racing in the snow, sauntering along the cliff tops, or jogging in the rain, I want every run to be a story. Every run has the potential to be an unforgettable experience.

I love solo running, and I enjoy running with friends too. Running has opened my life in so many ways.

I feel the same way about food.

Some People Got Upset About My Food Choices

I recently shared my eating plan that I’ve followed to lose 24 pounds and maintain a healthy BMI:

  • A piece of fruit for breakfast
  • Salad for lunch
