So Admirable


To me, it is the most awesome thing. It is runners 7 through 11 listed below.


They are running the 52 day, 3,100 mile, Self Transcendence race. They won't make it to 3,100 miles in 52 days; but yet they continue to participate. It is hot, monotonous, painful; yet they keep going.

The reward is an inner reward. The world doesn't honor just doing something. It honors meeting criteria. So, if you run less than 3,100 miles, the world thinks you failed. But in metaphysical and spiritual terms, in terms of personal integrity, you won.
