Marathon: The meaning

It has taken a ridiculously long time for me to produce this post. And I have a feeling it will be anticlimactic now that I’m ready. But when I think about it, that could be a nice change! :-)

Turns out to be quite simple, really. Completing the marathon made me feel like I can do anything. Not in an overconfident, cocky way… Going into the race, I thought I’d be strong enough, mentally and physically. I was pretty sure I could make the right decision when the tough one came along. But now I know with a degree of certainty I’ve never felt before that I can do anything. I just have to want it badly enough and be willing to work hard enough to get it.

Pretty neat, no?
