I used to run for personal glory...but now I run for my mom. She was the person that suggested that I start running, and she has been to every meet I've ever ran. I found out about a year ago that she has cancer. So everyday when I'm feeling lazy I think about all that she is going through and running a few miles isn't shit compared to that and I know that me running and doing well makes her genuinely happy and proud. That's why I run.
i run because i'm so awesome.
I train to outrun killer bees... when they come man are we going to be happy we are runners.
I run because... because I always have run. I always enjoyed seeing how fast I can go, so now I'm scientifically training myself to see just how fast I can go. That and I like it when people I have never seen before in my life congratulating me on a good race. I miss being good.
This inspires me:
USA !!! USA !!!
What kind of shoes is that dude wearing????
I know what you are going through with your Mom. I lost mine to cancer 9 years ago. She was my biggest cheerleader, too. Most of us moms are our kids biggest fans. Anyway, Godspeed to your Mom and her recovery. As for why I run.....I run because it is the only time I am not anything to anybody. I am ageless, worry free and I savor the quiet. Plus, like everyone else keeps saying, I like being fit and not looking like I have given birth to 4 kids.
