Lane 8 is the worst lane. The slowest competitor is placed there. You know this already.
There is an art to being in Lane 8.
Huh? Exactly.
Although it doesn’t seem so, striving for (metaphorically) Lane 8 is really impossible.
Getting healthy and staying healthy, until we die, is really quite impossible too.

Most people can not even fathom what it would take to compete at a world-class level. Which is perfect, because Lane 8 isn’t about how to run faster, it’s about how to never stop running…..or walking, or swimming, or cycling, or dancing, or whatever it is that you find motivation to do.

This is a deadly place to be, literally.
Someday. maybe swimming. Or perhaps I’ll try Filed events, like the Discus, Shot Put, or, heaven forbid, the Pole Vault.
Whatever it takes. That’s one of the secrets to staying healthier. I figure everybody knows this, but it never hurts to say important things over and over.
Does it?
