This is from Emily Kerstetter - it's a beautiful poem from someone who is only running with spirit right now. Her body is soon to follow. As we can see in the strength and beauty of her words - her spirit is soaring. I look forward to sharing many long runs with her.

Breaking free of these chains
Finally able to push forward
Running toward the future
Feet slapping the pavement
Full force electrifying the grid
Body gliding, slipping just from reach
Exhilaration fills my lungs
Sharp and cold yet welcome
Gasping for crisp oxygen
Focused on the path ahead
Never looking back in regret
Leaving behind the past
Finally able to push forward
Running toward the future
Feet slapping the pavement
Full force electrifying the grid
Body gliding, slipping just from reach
Exhilaration fills my lungs
Sharp and cold yet welcome
Gasping for crisp oxygen
Focused on the path ahead
Never looking back in regret
Leaving behind the past
Emily Kerstetter
