Abstract

During my runs, I am constantly in awe of the natural beauty that surrounds me. It's easy for runners to get caught up in the physical struggles of their workout and forget to appreciate the stunning scenery that can be found along their chosen routes. I have come to realize that each experience is unique and that the path taken can significantly influence the overall experience. Through my poetry, I aim to convey the personal struggles, awe-inspiring moments, and values runners encounter on their journeys. I hope my words will inspire others to take a moment to appreciate the beauty that surrounds them, even amid their most challenging workouts. By doing so, runners can find renewed motivation and a greater sense of connection with the world around them.

Bio

I am Robert Sager, an expert aircraft mechanic with extensive experience working in the Marine Corps on the AV8B Harriers for over eight years. I have since transitioned to civilian life, where I continue working full-time on the Harriers while pursuing my Bachelor's in Aviation Maintenance. My dedication to the aviation industry has driven me to expand my knowledge and skills to take on new opportunities. I hail from Apple Valley, California, but now call New Bern, North Carolina, my home. In my free time, I enjoy running, which is my favorite leisure activity.
