Mercurial


How quickly the definition of success can change … I got up to race this morning in the cold and rain and the extra special friend of a chest cold settling in.  I was determined to “run my race.”  My goal was stay HR Zone 2 or a low 3.  This has meant running slower than I’m used to which is a mental adjustment ---stay focused on the goal and not on the greater time elapsed.   Right around mile 11 I’m excited to be right on track in my zones and out of nowhere a young lady I coached in GOTR is running next to me – the hug almost brought me to tears.  Success=possibly having a positive impact on a young person’s life.  Enough said.
