Running Your Race In Your Lane

The book, RUNNING YOUR RACE IN YOUR LANE, will help you understand how track and field athletes prepare themselves for the upcoming track season. You will appreciate the importance of mental and physical preparation, proper nutrition, starting blocks and the hurdles as primary obstacles to getting you over the finish line. The reader will understand that running in a track meet is the same as running the race of life and why it is essential to stay in your own lane as you grow into who you want to be.

Approaching your first hurdle in life is quite similar to that of running track. Some people use their starting blocks (or environment) to get a powerful start in life. They may have had positive family members, peers, teachers or coaches as their starting block. Then they grow up, and as soon as they approach a hurdle or obstacle, they back off because they lack the confidence to keep moving forward. This mindset prevents them from pushing through life's hurdles. They allow the hurdle or obstacle to defeat them before the race ever gets started. As you read through each chapter of this book, you will learn the necessary steps that will help you get through the real-life hurdles and on to the finish line.
