Day 10

"So I run with purpose in every step. I am not just shadowboxing."

Running without a purpose seems pointless doesn't it? If you have no destination in mind, no goal of bettering your body, no foe to flee from - then what is the point of exerting your energies by running? Although can you actually run without a purpose in mind? Seems like an odd question but I can't think of anyone who ever ran without a purpose. It may have been for recreation, for health, for safety or solely out of boredom. There must be a reason for running.

If life is one long marathon then I guess the point is to keep on running. Isn't the point to be in the race and to try and win? When you stop running, you lose your purpose in the marathon. So how do I keep on running every day? That is the challenge.
