I am now in the beginning stages of running a half marathon next year . If you ca n't see the spiritual connection to running , not just from me , but from anyone who runs , then you must not even be paying attention . When we being to fight in the spiritual against the unseen forces of good and evil , we can only be so strong , since we are too weak to hold the armor , too timid to go after the enemy , and not in the shape we need to be in in order to truly fight . So we fall , often and sometimes hard .

Question: Why must they not be paying attention ?
Answer: Since they ca n't understand the sacred part of running .Since they can only be so strong in the fight of good vs evil .Since they often fall .Since they are the beginning running .
