Race

What is race??

For whom and why do we need to compete. Are we competing for the prize(s)?

What is it we are seeking out of it?

What lets us do to push the pedal or run the next lap when you can't hold your breath, each breath pleading us to quit, each heartbeat felt in your ear with bounded blood vessels, trembling muscles with repeated activity, each muscle fiber yearning for rest to get respite from the pooled acid, chest fluttering with invisible wings in your lungs, heated body inspite of drenched clothes, matted wet hair with sweat dripping and obscuring your vision ....

Are we seeking revenge on nature to fight the limits imposed on us?

Do we want to be brave? Is that to suppress the anger?

Are you doing all of this to yourself for what? to prove what????????
