What is the difference between 4th and 5th place?

i am so tired.
so uninspired.
i can hardly see.
hardly move.
like the atmosphere is no longer air.
like the atmosphere is thick.
like pea soup.
i am swimming in a sea of pea soup.
everything is difficult.
i loose hope.
i need inspiration sometimes.
sometimes i need help.
sometimes its all just a little too much.

i remember watching this race.
i remember sitting in my parents basement in 1997
watching this on television most of the afternoon.
my grandparents were in town.
i remember crying my eyes out.
just like i'm doing now.
this is it.
this is the most inspiring thing i've ever watched.

and sometimes, it makes me realize, what i'm going through is tough. but it will be ok. i'll be ok. it might get emotional. it might get messy. i may need help.

but they did it.
just because they wanted to:
