Start.
Start running.
Start at that easy pace,
That comfortable trot,

Test.
Test your speed.

Once that internal gear shift takes place
Into rapid but perfectly coordinated alternative movements,
That amazingly synchronized ****** rhythm
Will take over.


To allow this, is to test your capacity.
To allow this is to also lose
Almost - Absolute control.

We are all trained
To run as fast as we can.


What may appear to be
A soaring sense,
Of will power driven motion...
Of an adrenalin enforced, endorphin educing
Constant velocity - monotony – breaking
Invincible High..
Is a moment, when you are least
In  control.

It is one thing to win a race
But another thing
To own it.
