Have you ever seen a runner giving thanks? Me too. I'm thankful for all the members of this running group. Every exchange of thought is valuable...thank you evryone. Thank you to Eric for running this website. And also a big thank you to Al Gore whose invention of the internet makes this all possible. MTA.....Hey, I just made a funny....I said, "Thank you Eric for running this website" and its a running website....get it? a running website....hoo boy, I crack me up...how do I come up with these?

In the end, as a runner, I'm thankful that I *got it* about running. How many people are out there with two good legs that think they can't run? I'm glad to say I got that number down by 1. The only 1 that I can really control. I don't know how long I have, but if something would happen that I can no longer run, at least I didn't waste my opportunity. Very thankful for that.

People can choose to be Thankful people or they can choose to be Bitter people. It's not what happens to you but how you react to what happens to you. Bad things are going to happen. None of us are exempt. But I always feel as if the running community looks on the Bright side of things and moves forward. We all have Bad days where we feel down. But generally Thankful people realize what they have to be Thankful for and get bounce right back to being Happy and Joyful. Bill

Staying with the being thankful / running theme. I am Thankful I finally made piece with myself about "non" running, and being smart about my recovery and hopefully soon return to running...all of you have helped in this difficult process...thanks!! Tim

Running has given me the courage to start, the determination to keep trying, and the childlike spirit to have fun along the way - Run often and run long, but never outrun your Joy of running!

I'm thankful that we CAN run in this country. So many places in the world are wracked with violence and oppression that running (other than to dodge gunfire) is not even a consideration. Let's keep it this way! Hope everyone has a great T-day, good runs and, for those who are recovering from injuries, a quick return! Big grin

Borrowed this from elsewhere for all of youse: May your stuffing be tasty May your turkey plump, May your potatoes and gravy Have never a lump. May your yams be delicious And your pies take the prize, And may your Thanksgiving dinner Stay off your thighs! Happy Thanksgiving Big grin
