Thoreau once said that a man’s riches are based on what he can do without. Perhaps in needing less, you’re actually getting more.
Life motto
When exhaustion sets in, the mind often rationalizes the irrational.
‘if you can’t run, then walk. And if you can’t walk, then crawl. Do what you have to do. Just keep moving forward and never, ever give up.’
It’s a select breed that can withstand the tremendous physical and emotional toll that performing on such a level demands. Without discipline to rise before dawn and pound out the miles, you’ll never make it. If the fire in your heart isn’t strong, there’s no point trying.
This remjnds me of addiction, dedication and determination
When you’re going through hell, keep going.
Tfhe dark times of runnijng sunmed up nicely
Why run 10 miles when you can run 100? Moderation bores me.
Yep!
The human body is capable of amazing physical deeds. If we could just free ourselves from our perceived limitations and tap into our internal fire, the possibilities are endless.
Its the reason I started running. Its the inspiration.
Running has taught me that the pursuit of a passion matters more than the passion itself. Immerse yourself in something deeply and with heartfelt intensity—continually improve, never give up—this is fulfillment, this is success.
