I don't know much about long-distance running for a long time. I never understood this. Why spend time-consuming, painful, exhausted and repetitive things. I have never understood cults like their compulsion. Always do this at least four times a week in a pious tone and an urgent need. Listening to the way some people talk, it makes the running sound like a quasi-sexual experience. Which one is not. Anyway, I don't mean that. Running for ten kilometers doesn't bring any fun unless you like to experience pain. In fact, running long distances is a bit like swearing single. This is about rejection, sacrifice, and spiritualism. Running shoes and heart monitors, pacing for yourself. This is my idea before I try.

I will not say that this is an epiphany. I just want to say that I understand. I got what they were talking about. I understand peace, loneliness and understanding. Listen and talk to your body…
