Have you ever been sidelined?
As runners, and athletes in general, I'd wager most of us have claimed "sidelined status" at least once.
Myself? I'm no exception. In fact, I was sidelined for three months, a few summers ago. THREE MONTHS! During the SUMMER, my favorite season for all things running and fitness. Not only did I live to tell about it, I am grateful for all that I learned about myself (and others) while on my running sabbatical.
