The scriptures tell us there must be opposition in all things, for without it we could not discern the sweet from the bitter. Would the marathon runner feel the triumph of finishing the race had she not felt the pain of the hours of pushing against her limits?

Cliff Notes

My initial thoughts during the marathon were..
This is the most awful thing.  Why have none of those marathon finishers told me how awful this is?  I thought it very rude that they were not straight up honest with me. So I’m doing that for you. I’m telling you that running a marathon is awful. 
I distinctly remember 3 up-hills but only one small down-hill even though I lost 2,500 feet in elevation. 
HOT!!! It’s hot and I really don’t like running in the heat.
