I've gone from casual runner on the sidewalk to girl with a number on her chest:

I'm not the faster one on the road, but I'm not the slowest, either. Seems obvious, but it is rewarding to give yourself a goal and actually reach it. And all the people that watch the race and clap for you: I could get used to that!
Of course, as John Bingham says:
The miracle isn't that I finished. The miracle is that I had the courage to start.
