Beautifully put, Antonio.
So many runners, at least those with previous good form, strive to match what they achieved 'in another life', yet the ravages of time dooms them to failure. How much more satisfying to accept new challenges in the here and now, to enjoy achievements in their own time.
The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph
