I might be competitive

I walk around thinking I am not so much.
I was out for my run yestersay and was feeling tired. I decided that once I got to the 4 mile point, I was going to finish up by power walking.
Just after I started power walking, I came up behind a runner I have seen before. He looks like he is older than me.
I started running in order to pass him and never stopped running.
That old guy was not going to move faster than me.

I can see it now.
Wheelchair races in the old folks' home.

I'd be the one pushing yours.
We would win.

The oldsters like to say things to me. Like "You're doing great." or "Slow down"
I wonder if it would be nice of me to say something encouraging to them.
I don't want to be heard as condescending.

Then you'd best be quiet.

I am saddened that Beedums isn't here to point out that the old guy probably had a bad cold.
