I agree with Missee that when it comes to running, a positive attitude is everything. A "can-do" spirit will only benefit you as a runner. Having that positive, can-do spirit comes easily on some days and be very difficult on others. As runners, we battle weather conditions, injury, and low motivation. We have days in which getting our running shoes on and stepping out the door or on the treadmill is difficult. After we complete that much needed run, the world can seem brighter, happier, and calmer. Missee posted how her son, D, has helped her as a runner. D also jumped on a course (at the most difficult part) and ran about a half of a mile with my running partner and me. He distracted us temporarily from the difficulty of the moment and encouraged us to continue. Maybe he has a future as a running coach?
Wishing you happy running! -Stephanie
