My philosophy...
'The road to success is a painful journey through the Wilderness with various obstacles man has to overcome. The journey has its ups and downs, its highs and lows, but man will rise victorious eventually. The human body is designed to deal with everything you throw at it; never give up fighting and you will never lose the fight.'
Why do we run?
'Once it gets into your blood, off road running is a powerful narcotic.'
'Through running, and, especially, when it is the last thing in the world we want to do, we discover new aspirations; identify and conquer our fears; apply lessons learned; and renew our hopes for the future.'
'Through running, and, especially, when it is the last thing in the world we want to do, we discover new aspirations; identify and conquer our fears; apply lessons learned; and renew our hopes for the future.'
'Running reaffirms the notion that success, in any aspect of life, is not to be measured by comparing ourselves to others, but by comparing who we are and who we could become if we approach each challenge with enthusiasm and determination.'
'I run because, like life, it presents the chance to defeat, however briefly, my most formidable opponent – myself.'
About Me
- Will Marshall
- So, this is the blog of Fell, Cross Country and occassional Road Runner, Will Marshall. Here you will find details of every training session and race I do. Running is a big part of my life and I love looking into the science of it as well as getting out there and running. Although only young, I have my sights on some of the great fell races, like Ben Nevis and the Lakeland Classics. Each day I find more out about my body and every run I am learning. For me, running is a steep learning curve, and it is one big battle to find the training and exact preparation that suits your body. Everyday I am finding my way to this optimum in a bid for future success. What do I want to achieve? Obviously I want to enjoy running at this stage, but in the future I want to emulate the performances of my favourite fell runner, Kenny Stuart. I'm sure all the hard work I write about in this blog will pay off someday. Happy reading.
