As athletes, we have ups and downs. Unfortunately, you can't pick the days they come on.
I love challenges and hurdles because they are opportunities.
I simply adore the exhaustion that comes with training hard.
A goal is just an awesome way to force growth on yourself.
I felt my throat start to close up, and I didn't think I was getting enough oxygen. I was scared, and I thought about quitting. But you don't want to quit when you've trained so hard and long for one race.
Running in the morning has me appreciate all the choices that come later in the day. The choices I make after running seem healthier, wiser and kinder.
