Any athlete will tell you that the glamour event of the Olympics Track and Field events is the 100-metre sprint. Just watch these guys at the start line ? they walk about like peacocks cheap air max mens , showing off their muscles; pulling faces; aware of the cameras; getting ready to explode from the blocks for 10 seconds or so of amazing effort. Nearly everyone can name a great sprinter or two. (Think, Carl Lewis, Linford Christie, Maurice Greene, Michael Johnson cheap air max womens , Alan Wells (an Olympic gold medallist and, like me, a Scotsman!) But how many truly great Marathon runners can you name? Not so many I'll bet. Now here's another couple of interesting facts:


1. A 100-metre sprinter is normally utterly useless at any distance over 400 metres and almost certainly could not run a marathon straight off, despite being very fit.


2. Professional athletes will all tell you that the people they really admire are the marathon runners. Yes, these skinny cheap air max shoes , normally older, athletes are recognised by their peers as being true sportsmen and women.


One of the main reasons that a sprinter will not run a marathon is because they just cannot get their minds around running over 26 miles in one go. The thought terrifies them and defeats them before they even get near to attempting it. When I began running I started off doing just a few kilometers. It seemed inconceivable at that point that I might one day run a marathon. However, I persevered and set my goal to run a 10 kilometre race. The day I ran my first 10k I remember finishing and thinking, ?Thank goodness I've reached the finishing line. How on earth does anyone just turn right around and run this over 4 times more?? You see, I had a 10k mentality and my mind just accepted that.


Later on I raised my target to a half marathon and cheap air max online , all too, soon the big day arrived for that. I ran the race and as I crossed the line, guess what I was thinking? Yip, your right. ?Thank goodness I've reached the finishing line. How on earth does anyone just turn right around and run this all over again? Impossible!? Now I had only a half marathon mentality.


When I eventually ran my first marathon, I stood on the start line and I was thinking 26.2 miles. Not 10k. Not 13.1 miles. Not even 20 miles. I had made up my mind that I was going to run 26.2 miles and not a single yard less! It was difficult cheap air max free shipping , my whole body wanted to stop? many times. But I had made up my mind and so there was no option but to keep going until I succeeded. I hope your catching my theme here?


Why do so many marriages fail? Quite simply, they have started their married life with a sprinters mentality and when the reality of the commitment hits them they bail out. How often do the fairytale Hollywood marriages end after a few years? Nearly every time! The problem is that they start their marriages with the wrong mental attitude. They are not thinking marathon ? they are thinking sprint. They are thinking ?glamour and glory? when what is really required is ?guts and graft?. The marathon runner does not stop running when heshe gets a stitch in their side. They don't give up because of a couple of blisters. Most don't even give up when they pull a muscle; they just run on through the pain. And let me promise you when you're running down the finishing straight the sense of accomplishment is almost overwhelming. Much, much, much more so than a simple sprint? and yet many people give up before experiencing the glory.


In my last marathon I was really suffering around the 20-mile mark when two guys stepped up to the side of the road and held up a banner. It read, ?Pain lasts but for a moment; glory for a lifetime!? I loved that message. I could have stopped and kissed them for reminding me of such a truism. I was infused with fresh energy and finished the marathon in my best ever time. And yes cheap air max australia , the glory of the finishing stretch was as sweet as ever!


Maybe you're contemplating giving up on your marriage? It has become too difficult. Here's a classic lie which many of us swallow: If you love someone marriage will be easy. What a lie! Every single marriage that has achieved a healthy longevity has recognized that there will be times of pain and times when you want to give up. There might even be times when you think that you don't love the other person. But they don't pack it in! Why? Because they have developed the 'marathon mentality? and a little bit of pain, or even a great deal of pain, never diverts a true marathon runner from his or her goal.


Please don't make the mistake of underestimating the power of your mind to control your destiny. You might have heard the following phrase. It is absolutely, 100%, true and you ignore it at your peril. Here it is: ?What the mind can conceive and believe cheap air max wholesale , it can achieve.? Type that out and stick it on your mirror. It can transform not only your marriage but also your business, your wealth, your achievements and anything else you care to apply it to. Do you believe that your marriage could succeed if only you had some help? Well, that's a great start. I'll be providing you with more and more help as we continue throughout this book but, before you even start cheap air max , recognize this truth ~ if you think your marriage is doomed, it is! If you think it is possible that your marriage could survive then it can.


Start now! Stop defeating yourself before you even cross the start line. Marriage is a marathon. A glorious, roller coaster, painful, joyful cheap nike air max mens , emotional marathon. Don't be a sprinter ? develop a marathon mentality and get set for a great race.
