Wow, I really am humbled by this. I know we are a smallish community at this point, but its a nice boost to my confidence as a writer (I don't really consider myself a writer, partly because I dwell in the largest English Department in the US, and I am surrounded by many talented professional writers). I am really happy to have found this community of global runners (!) and it has been great to find more focus for my time on and contribution to Steemit.
