2024.09.05 - Imagine if we all ran

Two weeks ago we celebrated with peace, love and running at Run Woodstock with temps in the 50’s, only to come back to 80 degrees of Hell at Dances With Dirt, how appropriate! It seems like every run comes with a bit of heaven and hell, always hard, always rewarding, not an escape from life but perhaps the best part of life itself. I’m still cruising on an event high no drugs can match. Perhaps it’s accelerated by the counter culture nature of what we do. The sedentary world in their couch potato haze, with screen time hours matching our Strava or Garmin miles, must see us as strange creatures living on the dark side. There is something about this that adds to the bad ass nature of distance runners. We are like members of a gang who have found a world to belong to, a world of adventure that sets our souls free. Dig it!

 

Run and invite the world to join us,

 

Randy Step an admitted obsessed runner about to open the door and do what we do. John Lennon said it best :

You may say I'm a dreamer

But I'm not the only one

I hope some day you'll join us

And the world will live as one
