Kudos to the Superheroes Among Us

There is something so amazing about running with a Run Club. Every now and then you find yourself struggling with your goal/pace/distance. You want to fall back. You want to give up: cancel those goals, forget that pace, and drop that distance! Because you know you just can't do it.

And that's when something amazing happens. Another runner - a faster runner - slows down so they can run with you, and encourage you through your run. They don't do it because they get any training benefit from it; they do it because they want is to see you break through those mental demons and come out triumphant in the end.

And you feel like that person is

It happened with me the other day. It wasn't the first time, and it won't be the last. These are the people that make Run Club so special.

You know who you are! You are a Superhero.
