"I Run To Burn Off The Crazy" Nice shirt with a humorous saying that speaks to me about dealing with my stress through running. We can do a simple Internet search and find reliable sources who warn of the dangers of stress. Being a type 2 diabetic stress needs special attention. However, I believe we all need a plan to deal with it. Here is mine.
Sleep: Strive to get 8 hours of sleep every night.
Prayer and Bible Reading: Seek daily to pray and read Scripture.
Eat Healthy: Eat healthy foods as close to their original state as possible. Example fresh fruits and vegetables over processed foods.
Exercise: Currently I'm training for the Run To Remember Marathon in Oklahoma City April 26, 2015. My routine is running 3 times per week and at the YMCA working out 4 times per week.
Day Off: Take one day a week completely un-plugged from work.
Massage: I used to think this was something to treat someone else to. No more! A least 60 minutes a month is a great stress relief and I have also added it to my marathon training. If you ever get to Joplin, MO visit The Brush and Blade and ask for Devin. Tell her Bill sent you.

Family: Doing things with my wife and kids brings great joy however nothing brings greater joy than grand kids so I strive to Grand-kidnap a different grandchild for the day each month.
