For all those running -- and rooting for the runners -- today: Run well, my friends. You stand at the starting line. Anxious. Eager! You have chosen your race And the miles await your stamina. Soon the thunder of thousands of footfalls will surge … A drumbeat of determination. The starter’s pistol releases you into the chaos ... The chaos of countless individual commitments … Collected in common pursuit. May you rejoice in the fellowship of your companions. Run well, my friends. Give it your marathon effort. May your limbs be strong. May your will be firm and your soul serene. Run well, my friends. May your minds find focus. May your hearts overflow with joy. May angel wings make fleet your feet. May the winds of the sublime billow your lungs. Run well, my friends. (Originally written and delivered by Doug Koop at the 2012 Manitoba Marathon)
