Being in school is the best place to be if you are an athlete because you can structure your own time.

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

I was actually going to law school in 1972.

When you first run up First Avenue in New York, if you don't get goose bumps, theres something wrong with you.

Right now, after having had back surgery, I am finally back to running again.

You have to know your body. It's part of the beauty of the training process, and once you've determined how much your body and mind can take, you can then begin to reach your potential.

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