Track is to road running, as ballet is to disco.
There is no where to hide on the track, you are exposed to the glare of the public. Fail on the track and you fail in the spectators’ eyes. Your every move is seen.
So you ask yourself, “Why bother running track?”, because it makes you tough, it develops your speed, pace judgement, focus and the ability to withstand pressure. No matter your ability the pro’s far out weigh the cons.
If you have never run track before then experience the ‘wonders of the Colosseum’, you will emerge victorious no matter your finishing position. Rest assured what is being stated here is a positive message. Accept the challenge and try track.
