I do a lot of marathons as training runs. If I'm somewhere and there's a marathon, I'll sign up and just go run it.

The human body is capable of amazing physical deeds. If we could just free ourselves from our perceived limitations and tap into our internal fire, the possibilities are endless.

Runners are competitive folks. I think some might feel slighted they haven't got more recognition. I think they have a point. In running, you won't necessarily get noticed just for turning in good performances.

Don't confuse comfort with happiness.

If you keep chasing your dreams, one day you'll catch them.

Any goal worth achieving involves an element of risk.

I never feel more alive than when I'm in great pain, struggling against insurmountable odds and untold adversity. Hardship? Suffering? Bring it!
