What sort of object is this: text story, photograph, video, audio interview, screenshot, drawing, meme, etc.?

Photograph Took this image on my phone

Tell us a story; share your experience. Describe what the object or story you've uploaded says about the pandemic, and/or why what you've submitted is important to you.

I submitted this image because I bought these shoes in anticipation for the lockdown, assuming that it was going to shutdown gyms. Running/Jogging/ walking became one my primary sources of exercises during the lockdowns. This image is meaningful to me because to me, exercise is super important, so running has allowed me to both get exercise and get away from the screen for a bit.

Use one-word hashtags (separated by commas) to describe your story. For example: Where did it originate? How does this object make you feel? How does this object relate to the pandemic?

#Exercise, #Running, #Pandemic, #ExerciseFromHome

Who originally created this object? (If you created this object, such as photo, then put "self" here.)
