Running is raw. Your inner workings are exposed to everyone, especially yourself… That’s no accident. The run has gnawed you down to a soul and a road. You are forced to learn who you really are and how your brain works, and sooner or later you realize you are allowed to change yourself. And I think that’s why some people are scared to dedicate themselves fully as runners. Running is facing things deep down that are terrifying.. like failure, pessimism, fear. But the beauty of it all is that running allows you to overcome those things. And maybe that’s what makes it so special.

Running has taught me to love my brain, my body, and what both can do for me when I use them wisely and appreciate them.”

Really tired of the attitude that eating can “ruin” your progress in the gym. No, fuck you. If you run a mile, that’s a mile you ran. Your legs are stronger, your lungs are stronger, your heart is stronger. I don’t care if you ate an entire cake, you still ran a damn mile.
