		<description><![CDATA[This made me cry.  Some of those feelings are so familiar, we think we have worked through them and they pop back up when we see other people talking about them.  I can really relate to your post and I&#039;m glad I found your blog!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thank you so much! :-D

YES -- that is so true! Running totally does keep me going, like you said, and training for a race and then successfully completing that race (especially if I PR!) gives me a confidence boost like nothing else does...and that&#039;s how it has touched so many different aspects of my life, from work to personal relationships. I am completely and 100 percent addicted!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Congratulations on all of your accomplishments and on deciding to share them with everyone (strangers and friends!).  

I know exactly what you mean when you say that maybe you&#039;re addicted to running...I was just discussing that with my husband, I can&#039;t explain it very well, but sometimes I feel like running and yoga are what keep me going.  Looking forward to my next race not only motivates me to train running, but in other parts of my life as well...funny how that works]]></description>
