running struggle simple
Running unites us and brings us together because, in the words of the great Bill Rogers, "We sweat the same. We struggle the same."

Perhaps the world would be a better place if more people ran. Dean Karnazes
running giving-up distance
I wasn't born with any innate talent. I've never been naturally gifted at anything. I always had to work at it. The only way I knew how to succeed was to try harder than anyone else.

Others might be faster, but I could go longer. My strongest quality is that I never give up. Dean Karnazes

running distance passion
Distance running was revered because it was indispensable; it was the way we survived and thrived and spread across the planet.

You had to love running, or you wouldn't live to love anything else. And like everything else we love-everything we sentimentally call our 'passions' and 'desires'-it's really an encoded ancestral necessity. We were born to run; we were born because we run. Christopher McDougall
