As I was running 6 miles, there was an elderly man running behind me. I kept thinking, "he looks a lot like my grandpa." I sped up so he wouldn't catch up. After a while, I couldn't keep up my pace so I had to slow down.
As he finally passes me...
Random runner: Good afternoon.
N: Wow, you are doing a great job!
Random runner: 67 and STRONG!
N: 23 and TRYING!
And that's when I made a promise to myself that when I'm 67 years old I will be running just like that man. But then I changed my mind and decided that I hope I wouldn't be running at the age of 67. That's too much for my future old body.
