Over the weekend I had the opportunity to help a woman with shoes. She told me she was training for her 2nd half marathon, with a goal of running the Chicago Marathon next year. I told her I thought that was great. She told me she is a "loser." I looked at her oddly, and asked why she thought that.
She explained that she has a new life thanks to running, because she has lost 100 lbs. I told her about my loss, and she told me I am a "loser" too. While I found the irony in her comment, I told her we are winners. She smiled, and was pretty happy with her shoes - bonus!
I told her to check back and let me know how her progress is going.
