person A: I participated in a marathon with my friend last week
person B: Wow that is impressive! how long did you train for it?
person A: 1 month of training. And it would have been if I actually finished it. I had to stop halfway through
person B: Oh no! did you get hurt?
person A: My foot started to bother me but mostly it's because my asthma was preventing me from getting enough air
person B: That is scary! I am glad you played it safe and decided to stop! there is always another marathon to run!
person A: That's true. I can always try again
person B: Absolutely! And I am sure next time you will be able to finish
