Running It's Not About Exercise

Running isn't about exercise, at least not solely.
It's a forced meditation, it's training your brain to endure, to endure through all the other difficult things in your life.

It's what your most primitive ancestors had no choice but to do. It's a game where what you put in is what you get out.

We don't run because we want to, we run because we need to, for our mind, for our body, for our pain. And every time you lace up your shoes and walk out the door... you have no idea what you could win.
