it's just never enough

Today I thought I was running pretty fast. I actually felt fast - not like I was pushing hard and my slow pace was too fast for me, like I was really going fast and it actually felt good. Anyway, as I ran along thinking this to myself, some guy who didn't even look like a runner went flying past me like I was just standing still. Sometimes it drives me crazy to think that I will probably never win a race no matter how hard I work. At the same time though, I keep getting better than I have been in the past, so that is always encouraging.
