The Question - Why Do You Run?

A pupil from my class asked me this question, " Why do you run MrDanny?"

First thing that came to my mind was this quote;-

I run because I can.
When I get tired, I remember those who can't run,
what they'd give to have this simple gift I take for granted, and I run harder for them.
I know they would do the same for me.

And so I answered;-

"Because I can."

Not of conceit but because I'm grateful that I can.

This quote also reminds me that we should be grateful with what we have because the things we take for granted (such as the ability to run) would be a Godsend to those who can't like the disabled for instance.

I am humbled.
