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.

I always say if the marathon is a part-time interest, you will only get part-time results.

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

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

Aiming for the marathon is a task of sorts which can include terrific highs and lows.

I believe you'll develop speed via strength work which includes hill running, either repeats, or running hilly courses as the Kenyans do on a steady basis

Hills are terrific for running
