And now more research coming out that says. This is great as there is real life experience to back up the science. If you’re looking for a way to get over depression, check out this piece in the Globe & Mail.

And in the honour of the upcoming New York City Marathon which I will be participating in this Sunday morning along with 50,000 new friends, I present some of the folks I will be running with.

I love the story coming from the NBA where avid runner and Commissioner Adam Silver and former NBA stars will run a relay during the marathon to try to encourage kids to exercise.

Some other favourites running it include tennis star Caroline Wozniacki and marathon superstar Meb Keflezighi. It should be a great time!
