Hindsight is 2020, Part 2 – Finding Balance

Physical activity, particularly running, helps the body process and release stress, and it helps the mind work through lingering problems with meditative silence. I have benefited from both in the past, which makes it all the more odd that I did not avail myself of running during the most collectively stressful year we have experienced in a generation. I intend to change that in 2021.

In this two-parter, we will look at finding balance in an unbalanced year.
