I'm not a marathon runner... would love to get to half marathon some day... but read this today πŸ˜„ It's the OptimiseNotes of a book called "The power of full engagement" by Tony Schwartz... but after reading this I don't think I'll be buying it!!!!!! Maybe he's just jealous!!!! πŸ˜„

Well, Trump's πŸ‘»writer clearly knew nothing about running when he wrote that. There again, what would I know, I'm just a πŸ§Ÿβ€β™€οΈ!

There are a lot of amateur 'gurus' out there who make it up as they go along!

What a pile of πŸ’©.

I see she's disguised herself to blend in with the cactus flowers behind. 🀣

So much πŸ’© written by people on all sorts of subjects.Last week I saw what I guessed was a long distance runner right out in the middle of nowhere and I thought his powerful but purposefully slow stride was wonderful.

Three cheers for long distance runners πŸ‘

We’re every kind of runner! πŸ™‚

We never envisage our future running selves when embarking on C25K. Few of us had any aspirations other than finishing the session.

Don’t pigeonhole yourself as any kind of runner. Just keep running for pleasure and better health and who knows where you’ll end up πŸ’ͺπŸ˜€πŸ‘

If you want to run a half marathon you will. Good luck πŸ™‚

Not what you're looking for?
