Panting
sweating
pumping
god, I can't breathe
achey
hurty
ouchy
but, god, I can't stop
in my sights,
I see them
I know I can make it
god, I can't stop now
they're walking
and I'm still running
running until I catch up to them.
Thank god I caught up.

This is a wonderful poem. : ) I love that you're honest in your poem, and that it involves running. All in all, it's amazing. : ) Thank you for sharing this. ^_^
