To have a sound mind in a sound body I run, and I try to run on trails as much as possible. Not only is running on dirt better on my joints, but being close to trees and nature is meditative and soothes my mind. I can work out any problems or puzzles during my runs.

I have sworn off fast food and am really looking closely at labels/ingredients before I buy food at the supermarkets. Then after dinner I take a long walk around the neighborbood to clear my mind and get the body working a bit - just a little way I create a sound body and mind for myself.

Over the past few months, I have developed a love of running. With this new love, I have also adopted some key lifestyle changes which have made me healthier. First of all, I'm drinking more water! It seems obvious, but I realized I was only drinking about 24 oz a DAY! wow. Drinking more water helps me feel better digestive wise too; a huge plus! Now if only I didn't have to run off to the bathroom every hour... haha. I stay happiest when I get to try new things. Weather is visiting a new city, a new protein bar, a new running shirt, a new running route, or even a new magazine, new stimulation, new experiences, and new memories keep me happy. So basically, to sum it up, running a new route with a big bottle of water makes me one happy camper :)

I had no clue that's what it meant. How do I do it? First I exercise every single day, no excuses. Second, I combine different sports like running, tennis, cycling, soccer. Everyday's got to be different.

To keep a sound mind in a sound body, I run in my ASICS Gel Kayano's 7 days per week. Four of those days are with my 4-legged best friend, Lucia. It keeps us both fit physically and mentally as we grow together.

ASICS, Running with a sound mind and a sound body not only means running for the sake of running but running for the sake of others. Being at peace with ones self allows for your to accomplish tasks that you thought you may never accomplish. I'm running to raise money for a solar project in Gimbie Ethiopia and that is where I am able to have a sound mind and a sound body for the benefit of others as well as for Christ!
