ask if you ever run

I see some people say that running is blindly optimistic self-confidence. I really hope that the person who said this at least ran away, otherwise I would think that there is another extreme point of view in the world. Only those who have run know the meaning of running.
I don't regret my calf injury caused by long-term overstrain, and I quit running; I don't regret that I have to take time out every day to run in the busiest senior year of high school, and people ask me from time to time what it means; I don't regret running a few times because of injury. , extremely painful. because I ran. When Jose in the film wrote the text about running, I was so moved that I almost cried, because that is the power of running.
People who haven't run questioned: How can people do nothing for an hour or more, just keep running like that, and keep repeating those actions, it's so boring, it's so lonely. Yes, loneliness, isn't our life always lonely? Most of the things you do are to gain the affirmation and approval of others. Finally, it is your turn to make a choice. You shake your head and walk away saying that it is meaningless.
Have you ever seen the sun breaking cumulus clouds in winter? Straight through the sky, a ray of light comes down, and you will be full of emotion even when you are out of breath; have you ever run in the snow in the evening? The yellow lights hang high, and people come out of the snow, just the feeling of loneliness; have you ever enjoyed the pleasure of taking a deep breath? The moment you stop, there is no world, only heaven and earth and yourself. Step by step, step out and you'll know how different it is. As if you could conquer yourself, keep conquering, and get things done.
The film is a standard sports inspirational type film, the story does not have too many exciting scenes, only a gentle narrative structure, but it is still well received. For nothing else, they start off and you know something great is about to happen. Every conversation between the captain and the coach is another question to ourselves: if you know something won't change, do you still do it? Do you dare to chase your dreams? Do you dare to understand and integrate into the world of others? Do you dare to run?
Ordinary and even dusty days are like that, at least your unrest can generate a little turbulence.

McFarland, USA quotes

  • Maria Marisol: [reading Jose Cardenas's paper] We fly like blackbirds through the orange groves, floating on a warm wind. When we run, we own the earth. The land is ours. We speak the birds' language. Not immigrant no more. No stupid Mexicans. When we run, our spirits fly. We speak to the gods. When we run, we are the gods.
