"It's nowhere near as intense, but I feel happier, alive. No, I'm not making a comeback. But there's no doubt about it, once a runner always a runner."
So, you may have never heard of Cathy Freeman, but in Australia she is a big deal- and in reality, she should be everywhere as she is an Olympic gold medalist and the second Australian Aboriginal to win an Olympic medal. The quote above is from her describing getting back to training after the death of her brother. You don't have to be a runner to fully appreciate the power of what she is saying, just think about it. Think about how you feel before & after a workout- be it intense or just a walk around the block. Once fitness becomes a regular part of your life, when you don't have it- it effects you mentally- not just physically.
