Running as therapy
Well said Tim.
Running has prove cathartic for me, too JP.
When my daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes our world pretty much stopped spinning for a while. I needed some way to 'do something' - it's a 'male thing', I'm told - and running came to my rescue. I've now run in 3 marathons raising money for diabetes research, helping more people than just my daughter, feeling damned good about myself in the process.

I agree that a long run can help you iron out your thoughts in muddled times.
I've had many occasions when work issues have been boiling my brain without respite and an evening plod has provided time and space for clear thinking.

All best wishes to you JP. Sound like you're in the frame of mind to ensure things get better from here on.

The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph
