A Chance to Start Unknown and Finish Unforgettable [quote]

untitled - running

I run because I can. Because when I do, there’s always the chance to be extraordinary. A chance to start unknown and to finish unforgettable. A chance to overcome all obstacles, to fight through pain and suffering to test your emotional limits and boundaries, to experiment with the potential of the human body and discover just how far you can push yourself.

I used to be a sprinter in Jr. High and High School and the long distance runners always had something different.

Very cool quote. I used to be a sprinter in Jr. High and High School and the long distance runners always had something different. It's more about endurance and tenacity. To keep going after your body says stop.
