Want to know the best part about today? Today, society loses some of its stigma around vulnerability, around fully expressing love and affection. Today, we celebrate others, no matter how big or small, no matter how romantic or platonic.
Go ahead. Bake those heart-shaped brownies for your neighbor. Write a stack of love notes to tell your besties all the things you most admire about them. Eat chocolate until CVS runs out. Take a minute to shout "I LOVE YOU!" from the rooftops to everyone you know, and to yourself. At Trail Runner, we are celebrating today by sharing some of our favorite stories about the many ways we can fall in love: with our partners, our friends, our trails, and most importantly, ourselves.
