Last week, Chicago was a winter wonderland (of sorts). This week it feels like Spring. So, like many others, I have been out running along the lakefront. The scenery is beautiful. Usually, I use this time to visualize & meditate. Today though, the melting snow inspired me to awaken and pick up the pace. The music in my ear, Maroon 5's "Harder to Breathe", inspired me to manage my pace. A switch to a Robin Thicke tune inspired me to sprint during the chorus. 3 miles of an amazingly inspired run & I began to wonder, "what inspires others to keep physically active?"
