Brother, that’s some determination – streak day 12 #twit2fit

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.
