Sometimes - especially during a long recession -- you need to "fake it 'til you make it.'' Here is a heavily pixilated photo of me doing just that: making a fake power salute and victory gesture at the end of last week's marathon. At the moment this picture was taken, I did not feel victorious; in truth, I was exhausted and wanted to fall to my knees and possibly vomit. In spite of this, I used my last little bit of energy to pump my fist at a camera man perched over the finish line.
This strategy worked; it took the edge off my exhaustion, and helped me pick up my speed at the end.
The woman in front of me looks very bummed out.
but which one are you in photo, there are two guys in photo doing victory salutes
