Running is just such a monastery- a retreat, a place to commune with God and yourself, a place for psychological and spiritual renewal.

The more I run, the more I want to run, and the more I live a life conditioned and influenced and fashioned by my running. And the more I run, the more certain I am that I am heading for my real goal: to become the person I am.

Fitness has to be fun. If it is not play there will be no fitness. Play, you see, is where the process. Fitness is merely the product.

Out on the roads there is fitness and self-discovery and the persons we were destined to be.

No matter how old I get, the race remains one of life's most rewarding experiences.

Sweat cleanses from the inside. It comes from places a shower will never reach.
