No one who works a forty hour week will ever beat me.
Being a lifelong runner, knowing what running gives me, a variety of factors - that is what motivates me.
Aiming for the marathon is a task of sorts which can include terrific highs and lows.
A change of pace in terms of your running pace will give you strength psychologically.
I always say if the marathon is a part-time interest, you will only get part-time results.
My whole feeling in terms of racing is that you have to be very bold. You sometimes have to be aggressive and gamble.
