Why 'Running Wild'?

The phrase 'running wild' seems to characterize my world. Physically, being a competitive distance runner, I push myself to run far and fast about 360 mornings a year. Mentally, my brain fills every hour of the day running with the wild thoughts and flow in and out. My emotions tend to run wild, but I try to keep anything that doesn't fit into a pretty little box from being released. In general, since my move from Wisco to So Cal last year I have found myself running... running races, running away, running in circles... But running is my passion, filling me with life, strength, courage, and gratitude.
