The running society

Day 4:

So I met a fellow runner today sitting in starbucks working on my thesis for grad school on what motivates a runner to run. She was told never to run again after high school. She has lime disease. She has a condition that causes her body to stroke after giving birth, she just had a baby a few months ago. She has ran three marathons and is training to run in San Fran this summer.

INSPIRING! She expressed how her motivation was taken to a whole new level by running for the AIDS Marathon cause. We chatted for awhile. I believe we all are running for a cause, some of us just haven't found what it is yet.

Anywhere in the world runners connect on a level that only a runner can relate to. It's like we're all in sync, we all "get it". It's a group I am blessed to have discovered.
