Finding Time

Thanks to my profession, appearance and frequent appearances in not much clothing on local roads, people tend to know I’m a runner. There’s a subset of non-runners who (mistakenly) think I want to evangelize about running, and they try to preemptively stop that by saying something like, “I would like to run, but I don’t have the time.” And then they probably go home and watch TV for four hours or read updates from all 313 of their Facebook friends.

Because you’re reading this book, I’m going to assume you know the “I don’t have time” line is almost never true. You’ve experienced another of my idiot-savant-as-running-coach truisms: We find the time for the things that are important to us. Period.
