As I've been able to once again gain the benefits of speed work, I'm enjoying my running more and more.

There's obviously some validity to it. But I think it also points out that you obviously can do it on your own because people have been doing it long before they had the stuff.

You have to forget your last marathon before you try another. Your mind can't know what's coming.

I want my time spent running to serve as a reward.

You don't run 26 miles at five minutes a mile on good looks and a secret recipe.

Numbers don't lie. You always seem to remember your workouts as being a little better than they were. It's good to go back and review what you do.

You train best where you are the happiest.
