Because until we write it down, we don't know what is actually at the root of our lives.

The key then is to find your own mountain, otherwise you will be competing with people who are not even in your event, and running up against the 'shoulds' and 'oughts' of that world, and the inevitable frustration and depression and feelings of failure. A person can be complete or incomplete, but one thing is sure, he cannot be someone else.

Every runner is an experiment of one.

Have you ever felt worse after a run?

Anything that changes your values changes your behaviour.

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

To know you are one with what you are doing, to know that you are a complete athlete, begins with believing you are a runner.
