Hare, turtle, young and old
Slim, fast, fat and slow
Don’t you rush, rather hush hush
Let it flow, let it flow
Take you aim, fire at will
Take them out, blow by blow
Sapiens with courage, stop at nothing
Others scream, in voices hollow
Good photo!
All of my kids (all grown up and on their own) run in marathons and 5 and 10 K’s, etc.
It’s nice to see each of these ladies going at their own pace and still accomplishing something great! π
HUGS!!! π
I seem to be in the turtle category these days, my running days definitely over. Yet, even knowing this, I do my best. I really enjoyed this, AB. Thank you! Rushing no matter what age, is futile. Just sayin’. π LOL Love, Amy
You are welcome, AB. I live with one who constantly rushes, and I inwardly sigh, because that Lesson must be learned by that person. My thoughts or words of advice would only hit a brick wall. Rushing only accomplishes one thing …. increased stress. (((HUGS))) Amy
We still have snow here….. It’s soooo beautiful there!!!

Oh yeah, Rio rocks. Well said AB. However, their racing seems to be more like turtles than hares, wouldn’t you agree? Must be the heat.

HAHAHAHAHA. That’s funny. You think it’s the heat? Must be. It can get pretty stinking hot in Rio, as you know.
