Traci, have you heard? Heard what? No, not bird is the word.
WE are RUNNERS. Say it out loud: "I am a runner."
I don't think of myself as a runner. I consider myself a dabbler in exercise. I walk a bit, jog a bit, run a bit, do yoga a bit, and dabble here and there. But according to my book about women runners, we are runners. And we need to say it, repeat it, and live it. We've run many miles. We've done long distances and short distances. We have run, therefore, we are runners. Congrats :)
Today for my workout, I ran 6 miles. Good run. It was cool outside. I decided to skip going to the track around the university, and just wove in and around the neighborhood by my house.
I'd have to agree with you in that I see myself as a dabbler and not as a runner. Hopefully given enough time my mind will change ... just like the whole "I am an attorney" bit.
