“To give anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift”
i’ve been living by this quote since i was 11 years old. it was made famous by the greatest distance runner to ever live, Steve Prefontaine. the great thing about Pre was that he was only 5’4, had a smaller frame than anyone else on the track and even had one leg shorter than that other…but he never backed down from anyone. he was never afraid to push the limits of both himself and those around him. he was never afraid to fight for what he wanted.
and thats exactly what im going to do. this is my sense of empowerment. this is for everyone i love and everything that i do for my family. i will never give up on myself and i will never allow myself to sell short my own capabilities.
