I have seen quite a bit of encouragement out on the course from other runners during the last couple of half-marathons that I've run. It's definitely heartening to see it.Raquelitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13138113830990586689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7349589916468289615.post-23407727885763415122011-11-17T11:02:19.943-08:002011-11-17T11:02:19.943-08:00I have definitely gotten a hand up at races.

I face planted at one trail race and the guy in front of me helped me up and made sure I was alright. <br /><br />I've made an effort to get better at giving verbal encouragement to other runners. The random positive things that other runners say to me sometimes makes my day and I like to spread the love too!keyalushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12706394687703975927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7349589916468289615.post-20208881003067204092011-11-17T10:21:01.044-08:002011-11-17T10:21:01.044-08:00How much do we love Mr. Orange?

A guy came by and asked how badly I wanted to finish. I said not at all. Well, he wouldn't let me get away with that. He made me get up and ran me the rest of the way in, even taking walking breaks w/ me when I needed it. Awesome kindness from a stranger and something I'll never forget.misszippyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16816276167373260149noreply@blogger.com
