Not all of us were made to run marathon races. Some of us were made to be sprinters. We like to go fast! Cheetah comes in to talk to us about the lessons she has learned from sprinting.
- Sprinting – going really fast – gives you the element of surprise when you are stalking food (working) or when you are simply having fun.
- The short, fast run keeps your muscles toned, your wind and lungs maxed, and your heart tuned to a low resting rate. You become a prime, physical specimen.
- When you sprint, your focus is quite sharp for a short period of time. Then you can stop and rest and look around. This is when you become very aware of your environment. What happens then is that you see a bigger, clearer picture that is different then when you are moving slower but more consistently moving, such as one would in a marathon.
- If you wish to give yourself more time at the destination, then one needs to sprint to it, and not run towards the destination slowly.
As I listened to Cheetah, I was amazed at the wisdom in her words. She indicated that she and her kind have been around about eight million years, and that they have not changed much in that time. The last bit of wisdom, then, is that sprinting may preserve the species.
Many blessings,
Judy
