A friend recently ran her first post injury race, after having to go through several long months of PT for a running injury. Her goal for the race was to just "Finish Strong".
To spectators along the route she may not have looked like the trained athlete she is.
As she walked the water stops, other passing runners might think of the seconds she was giving away.
But if they knew of her journey they would of known this was part of the day's plan to reach her goal, to "Finish Strong".
Most of us enjoy our sports for just that, enjoyment.
If we stumble and fall down along the way, and we all will, sometimes we need to be reminded it's just a sport, a game we love to play.
To put life's setbacks in perspective view Nick Vujicic's video
I Love Living Life. I am Happy.
In the video Victor Nick Vujicic shares with us these words...
"Along the way you might fall down, so what do you do when you fall down... you get back up"
"If you fail, are you going to try again?"
"It matters how you are going to finish."
"Are you going to Finish Strong?"
