Running. Reading

It’s great for physical health, and mental well-being, and can be a wonderful way to explore new places. I am into trail running, road running, and running around your neighborhood, there are endless ways to enjoy it. I love reading because it gives my mind the ability to stay active when I'm not taking classes or doing something productive. I like to read two books every month.
