"Sometime I feel a bit disillusioned with the world. I worry that we are becoming a society of selfish, self centered people that are only concerned with themselves. Then I experience an event like the Glasshouse. It is a gathering of people who all selflessly want one thing – for every runner to have the best race they can possibly have."
Tim Turner, 2006
