Wow, this little letter really inspired me. I really had an awful day, and awful week and actually, the last months had been pretty shit. But little things like this keep me trying to get up. Thank you, and have a nice day.

Thank you so much for this note, Florencia. I know the feeling. Sometimes it can all feel like it's going to shit, right? I know running isn't a cure all, but it's one thing we can control, where we get to be in charge, and push forward. I hope you'll think of this and perhaps get out there, too. Wishing you a great weekend - be easy.

Thanks for writing and posting this. You’ve gone up in my estimation, which I didn’t think was possible. Keep doing what you do, keep being you.

All the best from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
