I always hated running
or make that jogging
pacing yourself
going long distances
endurance
I couldn’t understand
how to breathe
how to control
how to want to wait
instead, I loved sprinting
I loved exploding
racing
pushing my body
to limits
i loved the speed
the intensity
feeling like I could fly
Today a little four-legged flying frenchie
raced me as fast as I could go
and made me remember
what I sometimes I forget
to keep pushing myself
because I still hate running
but I can still sprint
and I can still fly
I just have to remember to do it
