Produktbeschreibung

Some runners (and other athletes) have experienced a feeling of total wellness and sense of euphoria after engaging in intense physical activity. This feeling has come to be known as runners high. What is this runners high and how can we experience more than a runners high?

Autorenporträt

Sherri Edwards' Bio) Running enthusiast Sherri Edwards, holds a Master's Degree in Exercise Physiology from Florida International University and spent over 7 years working in a hospital-based cardiac rehabilitation program. She has led several 5K and 10K training programs for beginning walkers and runners as well as participating in a few races herself now and then. Running has been a longtime passion for Sherri, who seeks to help and motivate others to push through physical and mental barriers in order to arrive at greater levels of personal wellness. Sherri believes that a personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ provides enormous strength and power to overcome any challenge we face. One of her favorite verses is Philippians 4:13, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." NKJV Sherri currently resides in Atlanta, GA where she enjoys working as a Clinical Specialist with Thoratec Medical Devices. When not traveling for work, she soaks up time with friends, family and a nice jog with her favorite canine running buddy, Snickers. (Lisa Schafer's Bio) "Today is a great day to run!" is what Lisa Schafer often remarks at the start of each cross country team practice. As a high school teacher and coach, mother of five and amateur adventurer, Lisa has a lot to keep her running. Her greatest desire, however, is to pursue Jesus Christ and press on toward the upward call of God while helping others to do the same. Her life guiding verse is Matthew 6:33: "Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you as well." Having run in numerous road races from the 5K to marathons, Lisa would now rather cheer on others in their pursuit of spiritual and physical wellness. She is the author of several articles, poems and miscellaneous writings and has one previously published book, Love, Lisa. Currently, she is working on another publication entitled Birth Stories: Messages from the Father through the Miracle of Life. She resides in Florence, AL with her children.
