We like chasing dreams.
We are kindred spirits in this regard.
Whether your dream is running across South Africa, tackling a marathon, or completing your first 5km, it really doesn't matter.
When you distil it all, we don't run for the trophies or the records or the recognition; we run because a rapidly beating heart pumps more life through our veins.
Our ultimate calling is not to arrive at the finish line in a composed state but rather to stagger in breathlessly, totally annihilated and on the verge of collapse, proudly knowing in our hearts that we have run our race, which was glorious.
Whether you end up with a medal being placed around your neck or an IV line being placed into your arm, the inner bliss is the same. You have waged your war, and you have emerged victorious.
You are content. If you are never to take another step, you will forever remain satisfied. The job is done.
That is, until the next one.
Yeah, every runner knows the feeling.
