That seems to be a big piece for many of us on here. I don't think of myself as an athlete.

If you do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always got.<br /><br />I'm amazed at how many people (myself included until I stepped up) claim to want change, but keep doing the same things in their lives. Change is exactly that - its making a choice to do something differently. Its a daily choice. Sometimes an hourly choice. But still a choice to make, and only we can make it.<br /><br />Great post!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3732829991335734426.post-84081455879707255592010-05-18T17:05:34.363-04:002010-05-18T17:05:34.363-04:00Amen!Amen!Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07897053755749839079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3732829991335734426.post-33323642227210621932010-05-18T16:46:49.540-04:002010-05-18T16:46:49.540-04:00well said! you are so right! now, if only you coul...well said! you are so right! now, if only you could get this post out to the rest of America!Bethany + Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15378086868631816980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3732829991335734426.post-12493603506329509202010-05-18T16:39:07.153-04:002010-05-18T16:39:07.153-04:00So true!

It's hard to get back into it. I don't know if I consider myself a runner (yet) but I run. And I've committed (if not already paid for) a marathon. I will do it (with 2 exceptions: injury and pregnancy but I'm praying neither happens) because I don't want people asking me "how was the marathon" and me saying "oh I didn't do it." I do care what they think in that aspect.S Club Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13061586966925524808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3732829991335734426.post-72168584599992300502010-05-18T14:24:17.175-04:002010-05-18T14:24:17.175-04:00you rock chick! well said Awesome post!you rock chick! well said Awesome post!Ericahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01493145398091462192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3732829991335734426.post-41779079014069953242010-05-18T13:57:04.292-04:002010-05-18T13:57:04.292-04:00What a great post!
