There are those of us who are always about to live. We are waiting until things change, until there is more time, until we are less tired, until we get a promotion, until we settle down / until, until, until. It always seems as if there is some major event that must occur in our lives before we begin living.

There are as many reasons for running as there are days in a year.... But mostly I run because I am an animal and a child.

I have found my hero and he is me.

If marathoners finish they win.

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