This was particularly evident to me when I participated in the recent ArcelorMittal Half Marathon in Langebaan. The flower season was in full swing and the mass of flowers along the road was totally mind-blowing. In some areas, the carpet of blooms extended as far as the eye could see. So awesome! Yet nobody except me appeared to notice. Everyone around me was either chattering to their friends or trudging forward in dogged determination, eyes fixed on the ground.

MODERN ATHLETE ROCKS! Thank you as always for a wonderful magazine. It’s always one step
