Why do I run?

[dougb]

I run, because I like the personal challenge of racing, the camaraderie of fellow runners and the feeling of movement that it brings. It's a liberation of body, mind and spirit that makes me feel better about myself and those around me. It gives me a chance to be both student and teacher, to motivate and be motivated by other athletes. I run because I enjoy it. I'm not terribly fast, but then running for most of us is more than just about finishing first.

Happy New Year!
