Just drove past a lady running. She was quite heavy set and moving along at a slow pace. I don't know her, but my heart swells with pride for her! She has to know that people will snicker and make fun behind her back, and she's being passed constantly by tiny runners in tiny shorts, but she's out there anyway, shuffling along. 

Here's what I'd like to say to her. "Keep going. Don't give up. You'll feel so good if you make it to the end of this run. Don't compare yourself to others. I hope you see results right away, but more importantly, I hope you FEEL results right away.You go girl! You can do it!".... and most of all, "You're miles ahead of the rest of us who didn't run at all today."
