Two months ago a bootcamper by the name of Hazel Williams brought me information of a 5k scheduled here in Charlotte. Through out the year I occupationally will run 1 or 2 races to help support charity and to get all the great energy and wonderful cardio benefits. So I figured it would be a great event for us to do as a team(My Bootcamp)What happened to all of my campers? The closer the race got everyone either fell off the wagon and had every excuse not to run and not finish a goal that we had started months ago. Some of the excuses were legit but there were others that….well here is some of what I heard, “I don’t think I will be ready to run a 5k I will need to get in better shape.” That’s the famous one but the list goes on. I titled this article “Lay One Brick At A Time” for a reason. You see many people think they have to have a wall up before they start to do anything. Some of us think that we need to be an all American long distance runner before we even run around the house so never mind a 5k. I posted a clip to this blog post and I hope to inspire some of you that have taken the time to read it. Will Smith explains it best when he speaks on this topic. There were so many people there today that inspired me so much. I saw 60 plus year old women, 20 plus women with babies pushing them along in there carriage, I even saw many kids too. There were teams, families and so much more. You know what they all had in common? Bricks! They were laying down one step at a time every one had there own pace and some even stopped to take breaks. The thing I am trying to say here is at the finish line they built a wall and they did it together. If you missed out on this Saturday’s 5k run/walk because you made excuses and lost focus of what we set out to do 2 months ago, I hope Will can inspire you. You have to have the belief and with that belief you have to represent an idea that has tunnel vision and tremendous focus. Along with all of that you have to protect it all like a dream that has come true. You see ladies and gentlemen Kennett Washington once said, “It’s Really Not About The Race It’s About The Finish” Let’s all congratulate Kate Graham she ran her very first 5k and I do mean ran it 100%. She finished it with a bang! I challenge everyone to set aside 10mins and listen to this clip. Get Inspired and Get Fit For Life see you all at the top! Click Me To Get Inspired!
