      Thank you so much for the incredibly kind feedback! It helps the channel out so much when people watch a video the day it comes out. Thank you again!

      Thank you so much! There is a really interesting story behind the poem's composition - I just already knew the video was going to be a little on the long side (check out Sir Jameson and Kipling's son, John for more information).

    Generally I think your interpretation is great. I only disagree with the unforgiving minute. I think he meant that the sixty seconds mean that, if you manage to fill your time with worthwhile activity, anything is possible. It's not about running. It's about how you spend your time. The unforgiving minute represents your life. Your time is limited and time does not stop. Sixty seconds worth of distance run, is implying that you use your given time to the fullest.

      I totally agree that there is a metaphorical reading of those last few lines. I probably just read things too running centric sometimes. Thank you for your observation!
