“
Everybody should try running. And when I say try it, I mean do it long enough that you get through the part where it sucks and into the fleeting but noticeable part where you actually think it’s fun. Because during every run, for a few seconds or a few minutes, you have a moment where it feels really good. You forget about the discomfort and you find rhythm, maybe some grace, and a feeling of strength and confidence as you move as well as you’ll ever move doing anything.

And that’s one of the best reasons to run.
