Five daily blogs about life's 5 big choices on five different sites.
Remember how as kids how we would run versus walk, even across a classroom?

Hope you get to the point where you hate running. Because when you do, you’ll know you love it.
If this sounds confusing it’s because it sort of is. Until you understand that it’s not.

Because she loves to run, we think she loves to run.
But she struggles.
And no one knows.
Some days, and often for weeks at a time, she struggles to enjoy it.

This is truth and when we feel like her, plow through it.
Anything…
But do not quit!

What if we became fans of our own game?
What if we became our own biggest fan?

Just yesterday, they were talking as I walked up, “I hate him”. And they both laughed.
They were “kidding” as they talked about how fit I am. It’s simply the reality that makes up my day. I’ve come to understand that it will probably never go away. You know what it is?

It’s comical to me, because when I started, I was pathetic.
