It should be. We should be able to enjoy the game not just the result, to enjoy the journey, not just the destination. It shouldn't all be about winning (though to a competitive girl like me, I'm afraid the trophy is pretty important!) Life is meant to be enjoyed. Do what you love & enjoy each step, not just the reward at the end. That's the key to happiness.

If you win - yes, you'll be reliving the glory of winning it over and over. The trophy is just a reminder. If you don't win the race, then I guess you can try to convince yourself that your happy with your performance and that's better then any old trophy. But you'll probably still want the trophy.

The race is definitely better than the trophy.

The race
What is the point of the trophy if you did not work to get it. For all
of that you could have when out and bought a trophy and stayed home and did nothing.

Run the race to win the prize, press on toward the goal...strengthens the soul. If I win the trophy it means I ran a good race. Both are equal.

--It should be, too much is made out of winning ,rather than the exhilaration of the race itself. There are strategies in the different track events. Mile, quarter mile, sprints, marathon etc.

If you do not appreciate the journey the significance of the end is lost.

Perhaps.
It is often the journey that is more important than the destination.
