Motivation für Läufer - Zitate

Ein paar Zitate zum Thema Laufen, die viel besser das ausdrücken, was Laufen bedeutet, als jeder längliche Versuch einer Erklärung:

Sieh die Schönheit darin

“I always loved running…it was something you could do by yourself, and under your own power. You could go in any direction, fast or slow as you wanted, fighting the wind if you felt like it, seeking out new sights just on the strength of your feet and the courage of your lungs.” - Jesse Owens

Gegner?

“You don’t run against a bloody stop watch, do you hear? A runner runs against himself, against the best that’s in him. Not against a dead thing of wheels and pulleys. That’s the way to be great, running against yourself. Against all the rotten mess in the world. Against God, if you’re good enough.” - Bill Persons

Warum?

“You have to wonder at times what you’re doing out there. Over the years, I’ve given myself a thousand reasons to keep running, but it always comes back to where it started. It comes down to self-satisfaction and a sense of achievement.” - Steve Prefontaine

Und schließlich:

“Running is real and relatively simple - but it ain’t easy.” -Mark Will-Weber
