I Am a Runner

I was a middle distance runner back in high school..a middle distance 1500 and 3000 in our state..I would use up energy trying to get with the leaders to do some front running myself..nothing unusual to get elbowed and stepped on..someone might go down or others try to box me in..it's hard running in a pack with maybe 3 others and the rest of the field chasing us..there is a difference between runners and racers..look at it that way..
I quit the tracks after my last race..I do treadmill maybe an elyptical..
