Running.
There's something about it.
Maybe it's the way that the air is just cold enough...and not too cold.
Maybe it's the sound of pounding feet all in unison.
Maybe it's the wind in my face and hair.
Maybe it's knowing that we're are in this for more than the three miles. We're in this for the future 26.2.
Maybe it's the way that I can feel the music with every single step.
Maybe it's the way that everything suddenly becomes simpler.
Maybe it's feeling the burn and the best exhaustion possible.
Maybe it's the feeling that I can conquer the world.
Jesse Owens said, "I always loved running...it was something you could do by yourself, and under your own power. You could go in any direction, fast or slow as you wanted, fighting the wind if you felt like it, seeking out new sights just on the strength of your feet and the courage of your lungs."
Seriously.
Run hard. Be strong. Think big.
It's so worth it.
