I should probably clarify now that I am not a fast runner. As a matter of fact, I do not have a runner's body. I am however, gifted with a strong body. I admire people who have runner's bodies; they look so beautiful and graceful when they run, their feet seem to barely touch the ground, their stride is long and light, like watching a gazelle or deer. Do you have that vision in your mind now? Beautiful, isn't it? Okay, so that's not me. When I run, I am neither graceful nor beautiful. My stride is short and heavy. I think I look more like a Clydesdale horse when I run, strong and pushing forward, getting the job done. Don't get me wrong, I am more than good with not having a runner's body. Sure, it would be great to be fast but that's not why I run. I run because I just love running! Runners come in all different sizes and shapes. You don't have to be a super athlete to run. You just have to do it. [Diane Wilhelm]
