Here's a cool story for your Wednesday evening. I signed up for a @redditgifts running-themed exchange last month. Basically, about 500 of us around the world volunteered to ship a gift off to a random stranger, and receive one in return. It's a cool way to spread some kindness, encouragement, and pay it forward. . I sent some items off to a runner in Oklahoma a few weeks ago, and yesterday, received my gift from a runner in - who would have guessed, Boston! It's both a surprise and so awesome to have some running swag from one of my favorite cities, especially since this person picked out some items from their favorite running store in town, @heartbreakrunco. They also wrote a very thoughtful letter, and I thought I'd share some of their words, as they really hit home. . "I find that running makes everyone a little kinder, a little friendlier, and a whole lot happier." Couldn't agree more, internet stranger. Thanks for the sweet gift! 💙💛 . #reddit #redditgifts #runner #heartbreakhill #halfmarathontraining #bostonstrong #vsco #vscocam #instasize (at Heartbreak Hill Running Company)
