(Masada - Herod's desert palace and location of the Zealots' last stand in the Jewish Rebellion against Rome. Israel, 2009).I ran my first half-marathon on Saturday.
And while I was running, I noticed something.

who cheer me on,

there are two types:
...
there are those people that
there are those people that
recognize my pain,
empathize with my exhaustion,
and offer me
words of comfort.

those people that
smile at me,
look me in the eye,
those people that
smile at me,
look me in the eye,
and tell me
that they believe in me.
Those people who
remind me that
I am stronger than I think.
Those people that
tell me
again and again
with confidence
that I can make it to the end,
and that
I have what it takes
to end well.
...
Both types are good.
...
But which type,
do you think,
helps me to
run faster,
fight harder,
feel stronger,
and perservere
to the very end?
feel stronger,
and perservere
to the very end?
