Success does not come to the most righteous and rigorously disciplined but to those who continue running.

Courage is crossing a starting line.

Success does not come to the most righteous and rigorously disciplined but to those who continue running.

It's not about speed and gold medals. It's about refusing to be stopped.

I've always liked hills. I see a challenge, a goal, and I feel instantly galvanized to achieve that goal.

Don't compare yourself with anyone else. The world is full of runners, so you'll probably see one every time you circle the block or your favorite park. Some will be thinner than you, some smoother-striding, some faster. But don't let this get you down. There's only one runner who really counts: you. Running is your activity. Make it work for you, and don't worry about anyone else.

Don't judge your running by your speed.
