Today, when returning to the office after a mid-day run, a couple of co-workers remarked at how different I looked. One went on to say that she almost didn’t recognize me because I looked so relaxed. I was a little surprised.
There is no denying that my lunchtime escapes have a huge effect on my inner peace and ability to handle the stresses of everyday life. I just never thought of myself as one who outwardly showed stress – at least not of the work-related kind.
Apparently, I was wrong.
The only problem is now I’m so relaxed I’m going unconscious.
Morphed into a butterfly, maybe
I usually take a 30-45 minute walk on my lunch break. Once a month, I run at lunch. It is amazing and so refreshing breaking the day, emptying the chatter in your head with the run/walk. Works wonders all the time!
It was the running of course, :)
Most definately!
