If You Don't Think You Were Born To Run You're Not Only Denying History. You're Denying Who You Are.

Were Designed For Persistence Hunting, Which Is A Mix Of Running And Walking. Whats Built Into That Kind Of Running Is A Sense Of Pleasure. You Are Designed And Built And Perfect For This Activity, And It Should Be Enjoyable And Fun.

Distance Running Was Revered Because It Was Indispensable; It Was The Way We Survived And Thrived And Spread Across The Planet. You Ran To Eat And To Avoid Being Eaten; You Ran To Find A Mate And Impress Her, And With Her You Ran Off To Start A New Life Together.
