Epithet+poem

I especially like this piece because it is about one of my favorite hobbies, running. Once I started a few years back, I became obsessed with it and thought it was the best thing anyone could ever do with their lives. It's just that sensation you get when you know your benefiting yourself, the earth, and/or even a team.

Running

The challenge of running against an opponent sets a personal goal for yourself that you must fulfill. The feel of Anemoi’s mighty winds flowing past me and trying to break me, but as one of the greatest runners once said “giving anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift” these words resonate through my mind as my body is become tired but doesn’t want to stop. The pain that I feel in numerous muscles throughout my body, feels like someone is trying to crush every bone in my body. The exhaustion that comes to mind when you watch your sweat glistening under the sun’s rays, as it slowly drips off every part of your body. But even though running can give you troubles, it can also calm your mind, and can momentarily take you away from your life. Even if just for a minute, your mind can wonder off, and you can just think about where your shoes are going to take you next.
