10、uote by William Purkey, a well-known professor of education, that goes, “Dance like no one is watching, love like youll never be hurt, sing like no one is listening, and live like its heaven on earth.” I seems like the perfect life philosophy-and one Ive learned to apply to running over the year.But

If I was on a run and saw a car approaching, Id stop and pretend I was looking for something Id lost I bought the high-tech gear and clothes that I thought would make people beli

So I decided I was going to run for me-just me-and gained a new enjoyment from the sport I hadnt truly experienced yet. Ive learned to run like no one is watching.So if you see me at race, and I look like a 60-year-old guy waddling(蹒跚)along, dont worry. Im fine. The miracle isnt that I finished. The miracle is that I had the courage to start.
