Why Do You Run?

Run, run and run, why do people always run? A spartan ran all the way back to Sparta and died of exhaustion, just to deliver a message, he ran. Forrest Gump, out out the blue,he just decided to take up his running shoes and start running. Terry Fox, fighting with cancer and struggling with one prosthetic leg, he still ran. We run, during the welcoming party, during our free time, during boring lecture.

The question remains: Why do we run?

Everyone runs for a reason, a reason they believe in or a reason they themselves don't even know. Some people run for the records and the victory, namely the 100m sprinters. Some people run for health and some people simply run for the pure pleasure.

Do you have a reason to run?

In this weekend, I urge you all to muse about it whenever you are free. Just think about the raison detre of your determination to run. In the coming training which is on 25th March, I hope you all will come to your conclusion and share with us. 

Have a nice weekend!

To Infinity and Beyond
