Beyond Running

I agree with his philosophy and apply it beyond running.

Sometimes that hard work is a diligent sustained effort, and other times it is a regular effort made hard by circumstances.

Either way, you should not work hard all the time.

I am going for a run, however. I mean, after all, it is snowing, and that is fun.
