See that cliff?
It’s insurmountable
But there’s a flag on it.
Which means that’s not true.
It’s my flag, this is my marathon
But it’s your flag too.
Because we did not climb alone
We walked together, side by side
And while some faltered and stayed behind
We brought them in our hearts
You surmounted the insurmountable
You just needed to not do it alone.
This was the first piece by another marathoner that I read. Perfect way to start… and end!
What a lovely thought!!!
Well said.
Beautiful
