As I was walking to the library today on my lunch hour, I saw a bunch of people on the creek's path. Some where running, others were walking. And it made me think--am I a marathoner or a sprinter?
I always wanted to be a sprinter and run really fast and just be able to turn on the juice and blow everyone away during soccer practice in high school. But I couldn't do that. Maybe it's because my legs are short so I have to take double the steps a normal person would. Or maybe I was just too lazy. I'm not sure. Nowadays, sometimes I think I could be sprinter. Like when I'm impatient, I could just run away from the situation or problem and be done with it. Or I could run and figure out a solution. But either way I could figure it out FAST.
But it's pretty clear to me that I'm a marathoner.
I'm a marathoner when I'm drinking because I'm more of the slow & steady type. I'm in for the long haul. Same with friendships. I may take my time building them, but once your my bff, I won't leave you. It will be forevah.
Are you a sprinter or a marathoner?

I'm built for long, sustained campaigns.
I'm definitely a marathoner as well. I need to stop and evaluate usually though. I take it slow.
mjenks- Sustainability is important for a marathoner.
Andi- Yeah, when you're in it for the long run, you can afford to stop and take it slow.
Can I be a repetitive sprinter?
