The true miracle

The Road is not always smooth or flat. There are times when it may seem as though you are running away from who you are much more than running toward who you want to be.  There may be times when your body betrays you and your spirit abandons you.  The path to enlightenment is not clearly marked.

But millions of runners have gone before you.  Each of them has faced the same fear and uncertainty.  Each of them has learned, as you will, the truth in the Penguin Credo.

For all of us, the miracle isn’t that we finish, the miracle is that we have the courage to start.

-John “The Penguin” Bingham, 
The Courage to Start
