    Next person who tells me “you can make it!” on my afternoon stroll around the neighborhood, because I’m young and use mobility aids, is getting a whack from said mobility aids. I’m not your inspiration porn.

      Dude I’m 46 and run semi regularly. Every time someone on their driveway says something I want to jog up smack them and keep running.

        Lmao at my last race a random teenager was all like “FINISH STRONG” as I was slowing down happy it was nearly over. Don’t say that to folks high on adrenaline and wondering why they signed up for this please.
