#WeVerb11: Grasp

Describe something that you actively engaged in learning to do this year.

I'm still learning to be a runner.  I don't always love it.  I'm not always consistent with it.  It's still something I want to be able to do, and I think it will be really good for me when I am able to run races and complete workouts.  I am three weeks into Couch to 5k (again) and pleasantly surprised with how easy it was to get back into it after taking a long break since May.  


When does one cease to be learning and just become a runner?  I'm still figuring that out.  Maybe it's when you run a mile without walking.  Maybe it's when you do so many races in a year.  Maybe it's when you wear out your running shoes.  Not sure. I will let you know in March when I hopefully finish the St Louis St Pat's 5-Miler downtown in under an hour.

  1. I adore that photo!!! Great for you for using couch to 5k.. I have the app and also need to get back to it. It's a major goal of mine to be able to do a 5k!

  2. You become a runner when you BELIEVE you are a runner. Nothing more, nothing less. Some runners are slow, some fast, some run races, some run daily, some randomly, but when you become a runner you know.

    I am a runner - A slow, fat, and dedicated RUNNER
