A quick look over my shoulder confirms that they are still catching in on me. Oh God how did I get myself into this? It feels like I've been running forever. My lungs are about to explode, my heart sounds more and more like the wings of a hummingbird. My ears hurt, my feet burn but my numb legs just keep on running, running. A soft breeze cools off my skin, but only for a second. The moist air and the hot sun make my sweat boil again. Every breath tear up my throat and my tongue feels like a dried out fish. My vision blurs each time my feet hit the hard concrete and I am desperately searching for a reason to just stop. I'm too deep in pain to start thinking now. The invisible hand in my back just keeps on pushing me. Right now I don't think I'll ever stop, though what's left of my common sense tells me "just wait and see, friend." I love to run, but I think it's becoming more than just a part of my lifestyle. It is becoming me. I'm not sure how many more marathons I will compete in, just that it'll be one more after this one. Running makes me feel invincible and powerful. When I'm not, I feel vulnerable and powerless. Sometimes I get really depressed and cry when I realize that my running is only doing myself any good, not anyone else. I feel useless. After some time I forget my crying and pick up running again, but the thoughts are more or less always present. I've however become an expert when it comes to rejecting them. Running, running. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- uXu #285 Underground eXperts United 1995 uXu #285 Call THE STASH -> +46-13-175042 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
