Day 58: “Friends that Run Along Side Us”
Glorious day! Yesterday we covered having friends steps ahead of us and their importance in our lives. Today, the second group of friends that we should have are the friends that run along side us. These are the friends that make the daily journey fun and exciting. With these friends we can laugh, we can cry, we can celebrate, and we can be grateful. It’s so important to choose wisely who you run with because unfortunately there’s a lot of quitters on the track and although we hate to see them go the race continues with or without them.
How can you spot a great running buddy or group of running buddies? Here are three qualifications to sift through the crowd.
#1 They need to be dependable. Dependability defines someone that you want to have your back
#2 They need to have a can do attitude. A positive and hopeful attitude will crush obstacles that challenge us and life is full of obstacles
#3 They need to be consistent. Consistency is key on so many levels. A friend that is consistent is a friend that you will cross the finish line with. Now to have great friends that run alongside us, we must be a great running buddy ourselves. Are you dependable, have a can do attitude and consistent? Who are the running buddies in your life? Time to partner up and run the race of your life.
