Quote by Jenn Shelton

“I started running ultras to become a better person. I thought if you could run 100 miles you'd be in this Zen state. You'd be the Buddha, bringing peace and a smile to the world. It didn't work in my case. I'm the same old punk-ass as before, but there's always hope.”

Let them seek for wisdom instead of power and they will have all the power they have wisdom to exercise.’”
