Running With Fulfillment

We are fulfilled by running - the extras - races, medals and recognition are but by products of the purity of our action. Even training to win or do well in a race is not about an end result but the process of daily commitment to something larger than ourselves. In the beginning of any endeavor ego plays a role - it's often the spark to a spiritual fire. Yet in the end ego is left behind as we pursue a truth that only freedom from attachments and expectation will bring. The true worth of a runner is not measured in arbitrary numbers or an imagined finished line - but in the grace of steps that's offered to the world. 


Peace,
Eric
