This is a past tense goal of mine, already completed. Jogging was difficult for me at first. A mile seemed too long a distance. I remember those first steps! Little by little, those steps became strides and miles became milestones. My original intent was to lose weight and be healthy but then I realized I could become a runner and as a runner I could tie my shoe laces for incredible ventures. I wanted to run half a marathon because I'm only half crazy. Richard C. Rodriguez
