*Why people go for Marathon Run*
"So why do people go for Marathon Run?
Why do they risk their lives to conquer an unseen mountain or Roads?
Just for the sake of victory?
To prove that they can achieve anything or is it just a healthier time pass than watching a movie on a weekend?
One Big question, WHO WE ARE ?
Those are hardly the reasons. Marathon transform you. You come to know yourself but not by looking within, it is by loosing yourself. On a Run you hardly remember who you are. You hardly remember what you do for a living. You for some time let go of all the people associated with you. On a deeper level your basic characteristic traits do not matter. All your regrets and your achievements go hide deep within you. The Road does not care whether you are a CEO of a multinational or anyone. After running for sometime in nature you loose your identity and become one with it. You are no longer the insecure feeble stubborn human being. You are one with the wind. You are one with the mist. You are the birds. You are the greens. You are the freshness. You are alive. Somehow nothing else matters, your work, your relationships, nothing. All that matters is the next step. It could give you a firm footing and confidence to move ahead or it can tend you to DNF due to the pain and agony. In that decisive moment you are alive. More alive than ever. That’s when you completely lose yourself and realize who you truly are. Each moment reveals newer potentials. You swim across unknown waters of your soul. Through falling you realize that you have the strength to get up. Through bruising you realize that you have the power to be healed. Though being alone you realize your own freedom. In the everyday routine of life, all of us forget who we truly are. In fact being on a Marathon Run is one of the very few times when we actually remember!" WHO WE ARE.
Happy Running.....
