Do You REALLY Never Regret A Run?

They say you never regret a run!?! I was just thinking about that 🤔 as I decided it wasn’t the right call to run tonight. I’m a little limpy tonight and another day off is better than a regression in the come back. Anyhaps, back to never regretting a run 💭 I was going to …

Being A Gluten Free Runner
