This is something that was written by my friend's brother...I read it and was like wow...that's pretty incredible. I didn't even know this kid was capable of that. It was written by John Brookshire...he's a runner and he goes to Riverdale...just in case any of yall know him.

No longer do I rely on a gun to tell me when I can go, I have no blocks to give me strong starts, thier are no lanes to limit me with boundaries... and their is no clock to beat, cuz theirs no one to chase, and theirs no one chasing...their is no tape waiting at the finish line, and thier are no medals awarded for what I achieve, only this soul-seeking journey, when the person I am is no longer measured by milliseconds and I can finally look into the mirror and know that i'm enough.
