The speaker trained for the SF half marathon and reflects on how taking a literal starting line changed their sense of what's possible. Once you discover what your body can do, it's hard to stop pushing. The finish line keeps moving.

Life is filled with imaginary starting lines. To learn how to cook, how to write, to play an instrument. I took on the most literal starting line for a race. And with a starting line comes with a finish line. But because it's imaginary, it can continuously be pushed. Once you see what your body and your mind can do, it becomes harder to settle for a version of yourself that never tried, and the finish line will forever move forward.
