“What is life? It is the flash of a firefly in the night. It is the breath of a buffalo in the wintertime. It is the little shadow which runs across the grass and loses itself in the sunset.”
Crowfoot, chief of the Siksika First Nation
The Sea
“You can’t cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water.”
Rabindranath Tagore
The Trail
“I remember a hundred lovely lakes, and recall the fragrant breath of pine and fir and cedar and poplar trees. The trail has strung upon it, as upon a thread of silk, opalescent dawns and saffron sunsets.”
Hamlin Garland
26.2
“All people are strange in different ways.”
Ed Whitlock
Read an amazing story in Running Times about how many GREAT races we may all still have ahead of us. This really struck me because, purely coincidentally, I was discussing Ed Whitlock with someone during the Pineland Farms 50 Miler on Sunday, then I found this article yesterday: Ed Whitlock and the Age of Simplicity
Persistence
Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan ‘Press On’ has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.
Calvin Coolidge
Isn’t He in Utah?
