Be Nice to People


You never know when one small comment can change a person's day..or even a person's life.

Has a stranger ever complimented you for no apparent reason?

Ex: Hey I really like your shoes/nails/shirt/hair/whatever. And that one little comment made you forget how much you dislike your job? Or how crummy your day is going? Or that you've been late for every single appointment that day? Or that you failed your exam? Or anything that's keeping you from feeling happy?

 I really believe that its small acts of kindness from a stanger, family member, friend, or co-worker can change a person's outlook. So remember to just be nice to people.

They may not appreciate it at the time or totally blow you off but that could be because they're so over-the-top shocked at your random kindness that they don't know what to do. Or they're too caught up in what's going on in their to realize kindness when it's right in front of them. But then maybe they'll think about it later and realize that you were nice when you didn't have to be.

I'm sure you've felt that warm feeling when someone is nice to you for no apparent reason. Why not make someone else feel that way? Who knows, you could be that little push that changes their life or atleast makes their day.

Be nice out there! :)

RUN NAKED

*Me at a local 5K sporting my RUN NAKED shirt*


"If you want to be seen, RUN NAKED."

No, I haven't taken up *streaking* but I have been known to be out and about in my new Run Naked gear from Run Naked Sports.

What's great about this brand is that not only are the shirts comfortable, but they keep you safe. Each product is printed with 3M Scotchlite reflective material so when you're out for an evening run, you can be seen by cars. With the extended heat wave we've been having, night running is a must. So why not feel comfortable and SEEN when you're out getting in your miles.

Plus this company has amazing customer service. Not long after I placed my order, I received a personal email from Joan, owner of RNS. She also suggested a size change for my order! How awesome!! I ended up getting gear that fit perfectly!!

Cute, Safe, and a great conversation starter!! Check out Run Naked Sports...you won't be disappointed!

Running Motivation



I love this quote!! I need to remember this when I'm feeling down about my speed or if I'm thinking about not going on a run at all...what really matters is that you're getting out there and running. Anything is better than nothing. Get off the couch and enjoy the rest of your day!

Happy Running!
