Op April 26th my father died.
He was diagnosed with cancer 7 years ago, but it was only these last few months he really fell ill. And even though I could see the end coming, somehow it still took me by surprise...
In the aftermath of his death there were a lot of things to do, like organizing his funeral.

I found all the busyness that came after my father dying very hard. I yearned for some peace and quiet and the chance to think about my dad, and my loss.
So I made sure I went for my daily run.
And it helped!
I love that about Running.
Running helped me cope with the death of my father
It's always there for you. All you gotta do is put on your running shoes and run.
During my runs I felt my mind calm down, and even though I felt Grief about my dad dying I also felt close to him. It was like I could see him in the sunlight that was shining through the trees, in birds, in the murmur of a brooke.
It really helped me.
It still does.
The loss is still fresh, but I know I can always go for a run.
