Track and Field MAG
The pressure,
The blood, sweat, and tears we
Put into our workout.
The competition,
The fear of the superior
The friends, the enemies
Getting into our heads
All the way down
Until the race
Then it all goes away
The thrill and anxiety of
Stepping on the track
Setting the blocks, stretching
Preparing my body for what is
To come
The boom of the gun and the jump
Of the runners
The pain, the cramps
The tired muscles
The rain, the heat and
The real deal track meets
This is the life of a runner
We eat, sleep, and breathe track
We live track
This, is my life
