Dear Body,

Do you remember when you were the one they had play the whole soccer game, because everyone else needed a break, but you could run forever? Do you remember when these legs could make heads turn, and jaws drop? Do you remember when these legs could run six miles every day and up and down stairs for half an hour? Do you remember when these arms could paddle a canoe for nine miles? Do you remember when these shoulders and this back could execute a flawless backstroke for half a mile? You used to get really down on yourself because you didn’t have the speed. Forget the speed, do you remember the strength? Do you remember the power? The freedom? Do you remember how it felt?

Prove it.

Love, ME
