today is the inaugural national running day!

today, june 3, is national running day!

"National Running Day is a national initiative whereby many of the major organizations within the running industry are joining forces in an unprecedented unified effort to nationally and locally promote running as a healthy, easy, and accessible form of exercise. The inaugural National Running Day will be Wednesday, June 3."

any bit of running (and, yes, walking) qualifies as participation :D to keep all running options open, the organizers suggest wearing sneakers (running shoes) to work - carpe diem! even better, try to run with a group - and use the opportunity to socialize!

whatever your style, get in some miles today! in a change of pace, i ran before work today - six easy miles.
