Running

Running makes me happy and free

Especially running by the sea

I like to run every day

I’d rather run than stop and play

People ask why I run

I tell them it is great fun

It is also a healthy habit

I can run just like a rabbit

You should run, fast or slow

Just keep your body on the go

Too many people sit and stop

Then gorge on food until they pop

Put down that greasy steak

Throw away that sugary cake

Get up out of that comfy chair

Find some running shoes to wear

Get yourself out on that street

Other runners you may meet

Out in the sun is where I’ll be

Running makes me happy and free.
