Great Strides, Great Full Strides, Grateful Strides: A Haiku Triptych – by RunAnon

Another season
Thank goodness I’m still running
That’s a Thanksgiving

Still running in this, my world
A true Thanksgiving

Another season
Running in community
Thanksgiving realized

  • I just broke the world’s record by 5 minutes for the 8k.
  • I ran a 50:37 and was in the top quarter of all women in race…497 out of 2000 women!
  • (American record was 67 and world record was 55:25.)
