Thursday May 27, 2021: 4 Miles

Today I finished 'Overcomer' from 2019. I walked 4 miles on my treadmill in 40 minutes, with a break every 10 minutes for push-ups & squats totaling 36 of each. Image below from the final race scene; the running is inspiring and the story is too. IMDb Movie Summary: After reluctantly agreeing to coach cross-country, John and his wife, Amy, meet an aspiring athlete who's pushing her limits on a journey toward discovery. Inspired by the words and prayers of a new-found friend, John becomes the least likely coach helping the least likely runner attempt the impossible in the biggest race of the year.
