Every morning, I go for a run. It helps clear my head and prepare myself for the coming day. Every day, I make sure it's better than the last. It helps keeping the life worth living.

But the higher the bar raises, the harder it gets to keep overcoming it. Whenever I falter, it can be hard to get back up. But I've got to. I have to keep going faster, and faster.
