I run to breathe the fresh air. I run to explore. I run to escape the ordinary.

Run when you can, walk if you have to, crawl if you must; just never give up.

As long as my heart's still in it, I'll keep going. If the passion's there, why stop?... There'll likely be a point of diminishing returns, a point where my strength will begin to wane. Until then, I'll just keep plodding onward, putting one foot in front of the other to the best of my ability. Smiling the entire time.

Some seek the comfort of their therapist's office, other head to the corner pub and dive into a pint, but I chose running as my therapy.

Running is about finding your inner peace, and so is a life well lived.

Somewhere along the line we seem to have confused comfort with happiness.

Unless you're not pushing yourself, you're not living to the fullest. You can't be afraid to fail, but unless you fail, you haven't pushed hard enough."
