I had a running blues at some point in my life. If you are not familiar with it, it is when you just run with sadness. Running is not a career for everyone, in fact, I am not even completely sure that I am for it. I used to run even when I am depressed, it was not a good sight to see. Everything in my life was a disaster at that time, however, I just continued to run and run.
