I Sense a Runner

Try and tell yourself you don’t have the time or the energy to go out and train. The people showcased in this video explore the depths of their will power and will motivate you to do so as well!

With that said, time for my second run of the day. This morning I had a 6 mile steady run and a 3 mile tempo at the end for a total of 9 miles. This afternoon, I’ve got a 12 mile LSD run. Stay hungry, stay running, stay moving.

"People ask why I run. I say, “If you have to ask, you will never understand”. It is something only those select few know. Those who put themselves through pain, but know, deep down, how good it really feels."

If you run, you are a runner. It doesn’t matter how fast or how far. It doesn’t matter if today is your first or if you’ve been running for twenty years..

There is no test to pass, no license to earn, no membership card to get.

You just run.
