Being THANKFUL ... week 4 workouts

As Thanksgiving approaches and I start seeing everyone post about what they are truly thankful for I begin to think about all the things that we all have that we might take for granted. I'm talking about the normal everyday simple things that we might not always acknowledge. I'm thankful to have this strong,  healthy and limber body, to have the ability to walk, breathe and see. There are so many things that we can be thankful for and I think that we owe it to ourselves to take care of this body, this temple, this vessel that we've been given. I know that sometimes with the pressures of life its hard to get out there and commit time to exercising or eating healthy but even if you just take a 30 min walk around the neighborhood you are strengthening your body. There are many people that aren't able to walk, to see or to even breathe who would love to be able to have that ability so for me that is my driving force. I will run every step, see everything and be thankful for every breath in their honor. FOREVER THANKFUL <3
