The very Idea of running !

It's very hard to understand in the beginning that the whole idea is not to beat the other runners. Eventually you learn that the competition is against the little voice inside you that wants you to quit.

So true. i do get occasional thoughts of why i am being crazy and until that one freakin loud voice hollers back, BECAUSE YOU ARE CRAZY ! now get on with it and finish the damn run, so you can start the next one.
