Normally, I don’t like comments from people as I run by them while I’m running the neighborhoods, but that’s usually because of the “Run, Forrest, Run” style comments. It’s probably part of the reason that I like running at 6:30 am. Well, today was different. A guy who was outside said, “Brother, that’s some determination,” as I passed by. It seems to be fitting for the challenges I’m working through. I guess that’s what I appreciate–it’s a respect for what I’m trying to do.
Is it a miraculous feat? No.
Is it newsworthy? No.
It is something, however, that would be a lot easier for me to not do.
3.56 miles in 34:41.75 for 9′45″/mi.
