Jaws, if there's one thing my time in running has taught me, it's never to judge a book by it's cover. At Gun Run I was again reminded of this. I started off looking at some people and wondering... now just howwww the heck did we even get seeded in the same group?! That was at the start, maybe the first few k's. Was amazed to see some people at half to 2/3 marks I caught up with, which means bugger where they ended, they got to that point faster than me! And that again made me realise that it's not just about "looking like a runner" that makes your tekkies move. I have loads and loads of respect to everybody attempting any run. Over the weekend I had a very lekker parkrun with my daughter. We were late and had to go past everybody at her pace. It was so great to see the different shapes and sizes of people out there, running, walking dogs, walking prams, walking/running together and chatting, just getting out there. Awesome to see! Edit: PS... I am still having this calve/knee niggle which is dragging on since before Cape Town marathon. Seeing the lady with the iron fingers tomorrow. Fisio 1 did not fill me with confidence that she's going to address the actual problem, so now for some serious help with the girl who sorted out my hip issues from cycling incident. Not really injured, but I know it's going to cause something if I keep on running (and the odd ride) as is.
