Running does not discriminate- a poem

Running does not discriminate,
pointy elbows won't make you much faster,
cool glasses won't get in my way,
Because Running does not discriminate

Nike's won't get you the lead,
duffel bags won't scare me off,
Your muscles can't intimidate,
Because running does not discriminate

Can you feel the cool breeze through your hair,
Or the burning in your throat,
was it your attitude that got you there?
Because running does not discriminate

Running does help make friends,
and often it attracts cool people,
but why do you need trends,
When running does not discriminate
