Why?????
Returning from the shops one day,
walking through the park,
I noticed footsteps close behind,
just as it was getting dark.
Then hearing heavy breathing,
it made me turn round quick,
to see a middle aged jogger,
and he wasn't in good nick.
His face was red and bloated,
he struggled with his pace,
breathlessly with wobbly legs,
was this his final race????
Eventually he passed me by,
he still did not look well,
why would a person late in life,
go through this living hell??
Unless you want Olympic gold,
why pound the streets in pain??
knees and hips all wearing out,
just what is there to gain???
So why do older people run???
slow down and take a stroll,
go faster than the reaper can
Bettylou said that's her goal.
Grace ❤️❤️
Hi Grace i start breathing heavy when i have to walk up and down the stairs or when i have to bend over to tie my boot laces so i don't do any running or jogging if i can help it, i even got out of breath a few weeks ago just pumping my tyres up on my bike x lol x
Hugs from your out of breath Roz xxxxx
Are you sure he wasn't using his running as a ploy to get a good look at Grace?
mmmm....trouble is Eva, after he passed me he went quicker....yikes xx
naughty!!!!
gosh Roz.... that's not good, you are supposed to get your exercise on the bike...not sorting the tyres!!!...better still...get a tandem and let the person on the front do all the work....just coast on the back... haha
Save your joints, get in the pool
Maybe after seeing how pretty you were, he was rushing home to get dressed up himself!
Oh sweetie I am so so sorry I frightened you, but I just couldn't get the words out to say hello, and the vodka tinged sweat was stinging my eyes so you were a bit of a blur.. Didn't have the hearing aid on, but I was sure you said something about off. Anyway sorry I didn't stop the old water works were about to burst, and the knees keeped going in the opposite direction to my feet. Never mind I try and break my personal best next time of 10yards.
Haha... brilliant!!!...😂🤣😂
This sounds odd....but I saw that bottom wiggle and thought....I KNOW that face ........from somewhere!!!!.
Grace ❤️
Grace, dear,
In answer to your question "why do we run?" Easy! We're trying to outrun the Reaper! We could just grow old gracefully, where's the fun in that?
Hugs,
Bettylou
Good Morning Gracie, a lovely poem BUT I will have to respectfully disagree with the message. A worthy topic of discussion over an ale at the pub.
I started running marathons when I was in my forties. Experiencing the so-called "runner's high" was amazing. You are right, over the years I've had a few injuries (one caused by wearing the wrong type of runners - supination vs pronation). But the joy of running all those kilometres is worth it. I had started to train for a triathlon (the biking and running was no sweat) but I could only swim ten laps of the pool and then I was done.
I just started running again (I will be turning 67 in a few months); mind you not at the pace I once had. My very aged dog Paige slowed me down for a couple of years but now that she is in puppy heaven, I have been able to pick up my pace. My blood pressure is good (110 over 75). Had a nice run yesterday and I will be going out for a run today right after I finish typing this post. I find that running is the most effective form of exercise for me to keep my weight in check (as you know, I enjoy cooking and eating far too much to not exercise).
And You are right, heavy breathing is a BAD sign. Stop running and instead walk, bike or swim; find what works for you (for some that may be walking to the pub for an ale). Your body is a machine - Use it or Lose it. Stay healthy, Hugs, Krista.
Krista....
as long as you run just slightly faster than Bettylou's grim reaper....we will all be happy xx
Bettylou.
poem ammended...just for you xx
I have to admit, when I read the title of your post Grace, I thought you meant the phone calls you were getting in the middle of the night!
