Just Keep Running

Walking back and forth, waiting at the start Time is ticking so slow yet so fast I feel my hands shaking, a pounding in my heart The nervous feeling that I wont last Deep breaths, in and out: I know I will make it The stomach feels sick with feelings of doubt Wanting to quit the gym, to end the pain Pushing it side, I will not back out Reminding myself of the reward I will gain Deep breaths, in and out: I know I will make it Thoughts become still, the world fades away Joy and excitement begin to fill the mind all my hard work, preapred for today Another medal to the wall, a new goal to find Deep breaths, in and out: I will make it The countdown erupts, the start is here I know deep down, this is my chance I can already see the end so clear Walking to the line, taking a stance Deep breath, in and out: I will make it
