I have seen them run to the accolades of a thundering crowd. I have seen them run in the solitude of a rain-swept street. I believe the gods decree that some people must run to prove that pain is fun. It's no longer sport, No longer just a game. It has become a way of life.
Every breath is a stride, Every heartbeat a string of silence.
It is a compulsion from deep within. It is a passion for glory. To go through the torment. To last through the waiting. To gain that one moment, Alone with myself.
