Comeback Power

Congratulations Jeanne!

Rochester Half Marathon Finisher—Congratulations Jeanne on your comeback!

If you have taken a step back from running or have paused racing for a bit…It will always be waiting for you and when you are ready…Comeback Power!

Today’s poem is for the Half Marathoner and a thank you to my friend Jeanne for the inspiration.

COMEBACK POWER

BIB number in place
13.1 mile race
Toe the start line
Pack it in. 
Ready— 
Go! 
A big grin.  

Weave in and out 
Fall into pace 
Breathe. Relax. Run 
Breathe. Relax. Run
A mantra to say
Look! 
All the runners here to play. 

Cheers, shouts charge the air
Goosebumps in awe,
Body and mind aware   
Energy rush for the miles ahead  
Delight in the glow    
Comeback power 
You got this, Yo!
