This is new for me and  I don't know what to say really, so I just want to have a try.I was always a runner and in pretty good shape for most of my life.Then unluckily, I couldn't get myself  out to run. I put on weight  and it made me feel worse about myself.I found it was much harder to begin to run again after a few years than it used to be and I tried my best through even the shortest, slowest jog. I was out in a run the other day and I had almost decided to give up before I heard someone say ,"You can do it ! It's hard ,but you can do it !"there was a lady walking the other way and had the biggest smile on her face. Those words encouraged me at a time when I was ready to give up.I finished my run and now every time I feel like giving up ,I can "hear"her encouragement. I've never seen her again ,so I've never been able to thank her and let her know that something so simple as a few words of encouragement from a stranger influenced (and still influence)me so much. The writer mainly wants to tell us that  _  .
Practice makes perfect Many hands make light work We should take care of ourselves Encouragement is very important in hard times
