Great documentary about Dick Proenneke
That’s why I’ve never recommended running to others. I’ve tried my best never to say something like, Running is great. Everybody should try it. If some people have an interest in long-distance running, just leave them be, and they’ll start running on their own. If they’re not interested in it, no amount of persuasion will make any difference. Marathon running is not a sport for everyone, just as being a novelist isn’t a job for everyone. Nobody ever recommended or even desired that I be a novelist—in fact, some tried to stop me. I had the idea to be one, and that’s what I did. Likewise, a person doesn’t become a runner because someone recommends it. People basically become runners because they’re meant to.
That’s what schools are like. The most importantthing we ever learn at school is the fact that the most important things can’t be learned at school.
"Leaving a geared bike in one gear involves you in singlespeeding, but
it doesn't commit you to anything. What's the difference between
"involvement" and "commitment?" Well, think of the ham and eggs you
had for breakfast this morning. The chicken was involved; the pig was
committed."
