Wednesday

Purpose is paramount for pursuing the prize.



When you run, do you think of it as running towards something or away from something? Maybe you’re running for the finish line or a personal record time. Perhaps you are running away from a recent injury, weight gain, or nagging medical condition. It could be you are running because you enjoy the company of your fellow runners.

Everybody has a reason for running. What’s yours?

That question points us to today’s “Running Quotes by Non-Runners” pick:



“All human beings should try to learn before they die what they are running from, and to, and why.” James Thurber (1894-1961)

James Thurber, a cartoonist and columnist, was not known as an athlete. Perhaps this is traced, at least in part, to the fact that his brother allegedly shot him in the eye with an arrow, while the two young boys played a William Tell reenactment game.
