I AM ADDICTED

Article by Trey Morgan
I am a Christian husband and father, who moonlights as the minister for the church of Christ in Childress, Texas. My wife Lea and I have been married for 23 years. We are doing our best to raise our 4 boys, who are all growing up way too fast.
The way I see it, runners just die healthier than the rest of us. But if you have to be addicted, I suppose there are worse addictions.
The 20 years I was a basketball official, I ran a lot to stay in shape … even off season at times … but I never once enjoyed the running.
I am a mother. I run to school, I run to ball games, I run to choir classes and recitals, I run home and make cookies, I run to the grocery store, I run to take showers, I run errands, I run to the pediatrician, I run to drug store, I run to the mall for tennis shoes. I run all day and some nights. I am a mother.
I am addicted to great marketing! and not many do it as well as Nike! (Not a runner – but made me think about it ~ for a moment).
I have a VERY OLD tee-shirt from Nike. It is grey and looks like an old gym shirt ~ It says, "Property of No One" with the Nike swoosh! That shirt rocks. I love wearing it ~ it always reminds me to be true to myself!
I wonder how you break a running addiction? Tie someone to a lazy-boy and make them watch bad movies all day?
Krispy Kreme has a cure for that.
