At Saturday’s Run Among the Lakes 5k, there was an unexpected surprise.
One of the sponsors, First Baptist Church of Windermere had a booth with free Barnie’s Coffee.
After the 5k race and a Chick-fil-a (another sponsor) breakfast biscuit, I visited the booth for a cup.
That’s where the book, Finishing Strong, caught my attention.
Finishing strong.
What a metaphor for running a 5k.
What a metaphor for life.
The back cover stated, “One man in ten will finish strong. You can be that man.”
One in ten? That’s it? How can it be such a low number?
