Being a lifelong runner, knowing what running gives me, a variety of factors - that is what motivates me.

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 believe in gradual experimentation with running shoes.

I often lose motivation, but it's something I accept as normal.

Runners are the ultimate celebration people. Running is just so intense, you're really experiencing life to the fullest.

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.

My whole feeling in terms of racing is that you have to be very bold. You sometimes have to be aggressive and gamble.
