A couple inspirational words

Hi everyone,

There was an article in the Wall street journal about marathon, runners and fitness. the guy had it so wrong in so many ways. Yes, it's nice to be toned and in shape, but that's not why I am doing the marathon. The bond I have built with my fellow running buddies is worth so much more! I feel like such a stronger person - I know far more what I am capable of, the limits I can push. Selling books door to door for 3 months, working 13 hours a day in 100degrees california starting showing that to me. This marathon took it a step further...

Here are some words that are giving me goose bumps! ad by asics
