I Run Because It Always

People Think I'm Crazy To Put Myself Through Such Torture, Though I Would Argue Otherwise. Somewhere Along The Line We Seem To Have Confused Comfort With Happiness... Dostoyevsky Had It Right: 'suffering Is The Sole Origin Of Consciousness.' Never Are My Senses More Engaged Than When The Pain Sets In. There Is A Magic In Misery. Just Ask Any Runner.

How To Run An Ultramarathon ? Puff Out Your Chest, Put One Foot In Front Of The Other, And Don't Stop Till You Cross The Finish Line.

I Run Because It Always Takes Me Where I Want To Go.

I Wasn't Born With Any Innate Talent. I've Never Been Naturally Gifted At Anything. I Always Had To Work At It. The Only Way I Knew How To Succeed Was To Try Harder Than Anyone Else. Dogged Persistence Is What Got Me Through Life. But Here Was Something I Was Half-decent At. Being Able To Run Great Distances Was The One Thing I Could Offer The World. Others Might Be Faster, But I Could Go Longer. My Strongest Quality Is That I Never Give Up.

Go Out Hard And Finish Harder.
