Breathe...

...Run...

Breathe...

...you're almost there...

Breathe...

...Run...

Breathe...

...I know you can do it...

Breathe...

...Run...

Breathe...

...don't let her pass you...

Breathe...

...Run...

Breathe...

...Focus on the finish line...

Breathe...

...Run...

Breathe...

...two more steps...

Breathe...

...Breathe...

Breathe.

The author's comments:
I run cross country and track through out the year. There is nothing more energizing then when you physically feel like you can't run no more and on the last 100-200 meters sprint your heart out. As soon as I cross that finish line, pure happiness engulfs me.
