"El viaje de un corredor de larga distancia"
— Italo Calvino
Simplified Meaning:
Long-distance running is about more than just the physical act of running. It involves taking on a big challenge, setting goals, and working hard over time to achieve them. Imagine training for a marathon: you have to practice for many months, stick to a plan, and push through difficult times. This teaches patience, determination, and perseverance. It’s similar to working on a big project at work or school. You can’t finish it all at once; you have to break it into smaller tasks, work on it bit by bit, and stay focused, even when it gets tough. This journey can make you stronger, more disciplined, and more confident in your ability to handle challenges.
