Ever watch a marathon?

After running for hours, the winners are the ones who find a way to dig down, give it everything they have and sprint to the finish line.

In horseracing, jockeys do this with the help of a whip.

According to Running USA the averages are 4:16 for men and 4:43 for women.  About 20% of the participants in the New York Marathon take longer than 5 hours to finish.

Just finishing a marathon is a worthwhile goal, but to win it more is required.

Life is a marathon.

Work is a marathon.

We train for marathons.

We should train for life.

Winning is giving all you have leaving nothing unused.
