Create your legacy, and pass the baton. — © Billie Jean King
Create your legacy, and pass the baton.
When you run a part of the relay and pass on the baton, there is no sense of unfinished business in your mind. There is just the sense of having done your part to the best of your ability. That is it. The hope is to pass on the baton to somebody who will run faster and run a better marathon.
