Runners hold to a series of values. In most case, we are defined by those values. And in my case, I am.
• We’re Goal-oriented
We’re able to envision a distant objective that we will strive to achieve. We don’t thrive on instant gratification, but rather we thrive on the notion of accomplishment. We know what we want, but we also know what it takes to earn it. We set goals because we love to challenge ourselves and we’re not afraid to do so.
• We’re Planners
Yes, we set goals, and we plan. The actual race is just a single day, but the journey to get there has been months in the making. Training demands that you often plan your life around it.
• We’re Committed
You can have a goal and a plan, but to accomplish it you need to stick to it. You need to be committed, because being a runner requires sacrifice.
• We’re Passionate
We love running! And what it brings to us both spiritually and physically. Running is not just something that occurs within your body or your mind. It’s about passion. It's in your heart. Runners view running as part of who we are, not just something we do. It's more than even a lifestyle. We’re always thinking of our last run and planning for the next one. In short, the cliche is true, we don’t run to live, we live to run.
