Being a runner means you are now 'free' to win and lose and live life to its fullest.

I want to run until I can't run

The starting line of the New York Marathon is kind of like a giant time bomb behind you about to go off. It is the most spectacular start in sport.

Don't feel guilty about driving somewhere nice to run. If people can drive to a park to eat hot dogs, you can drive there to run.

Runners...you're competitive, but you want to have fun, too. You want to enjoy life. And runners really get to do that, I think-after we recover.

To be a consistent winner means preparing not just one day, one month or even one year - but for a lifetime.

If you want to win a race you have to go a little berserk.
