Running the Race of Life--Response Postings

Along with your regular comments about what you are reading, let's delve a little more deeply into how life is like a race. Also, as you are reading in your material, do you see other ways that life is reflected in athletics? If so, include those ideas in with your other comments.

Remember your assignment this week for one of your chapters or lessons. Give us the major parts of the author's communications.

Identify your report in one of your posts.

Example:
Major Idea--Train your dog
Major parts:
1. patiently
2. persistently
3. diligently

Notice those all answer the question (whether stated or implied), "How?"
A keyword that these parts all related to might be "ways."
You don't have to include the question or keyword, but if you identify one, you may.

Not all chapters or lessons will be built around a key word however.
Another Example:
Major Idea--Train your dog
Major parts:
1. Realize it is important to train your dog.
2. There are many tools you can get to help you train your dog.
3. You will be glad you did this.
4. Friends will brag on your dog.
(This example is not built around the answer to a single question, nor does a keyword come to mind that relates to all of them, but this might be how the author organized his material.)

Notice that both of the examples are pretty short. Your report can be short like that too.
