On Winning a Podium

My medals in running were arguably no match with what I got during the past two days. I have been collecting plates for sometime now from my races but I feel my efforts are incomparable with what these two kids achieved in the past years. I would just run in an hour or two to collect one, but theirs are months of hardwork. While I must sleep early at night before the run, they would stay late to study for the exams. I have been going up and down the stage twelve times for the last nine years but those are not for winning my races, its because Sofia and Andres are winning theirs.

I guess running in florsheims is better than running in nikes.
