Running is just such a monastery- a retreat, a place to commune with God and yourself, a place for psychological and spiritual renewal.
George A. SheehanLike everyone else, I want to be challenged. I want to find out whether or not I am a coward. I want to see how much effort I can put out . . . what I can endure . . . if I measure up. Running allows that.
