Rain or extreme shine, these runners continue circumferencing this half mile city block in Jamaica, Queens, New York City. I really do NOT know how to explain the way these superheros complete mile after mile on a solid concrete floor day in and day out. And we are only on day 9. Still there is more than 40 days to go.
This amazing event that this small handful of runners are doing, proves to us all that we are beyond the body. Every single runner out there has experienced pain in some part of their body, but they push through it all with every footstep- conquering all that challenges them. They will be faced with things like doubt, fatigue, pain and uncertainty, yet with their inner strength and inner faith; those “things†always seem to pass.
I admire those who challenge themselves. I admire those who believe in self-transcendence. I admire those who want to make the world a better place from their own inner progress. This is exactly what these runners are doing. They’re giving it a go. They really are the superheros of today, tomorrow, and years to come. To all the 3100 mile runners, I offer my deepest gratitude. Thank you…
