My key to victory was that I always went out way too fast. Too fast erases every other race strategy out there. Everyone is hanging on for dear life or they give up.

Kids as young as twelve CAN run 90 minutes, and they can train hard to run fast, BUT they lose something in training hard at that early age.

Goals should be impossible! You should tread FEARLESSLY where the brave dare not go.

I never did cross training or lifted weights or put anything between myself and my passion for running.

Set a master goal for your running and for your life...

I always enjoyed the training more than I did the racing. There was a high level of anxiety in racing that I did not enjoy. Training runs set me FREE. I could imagine the race in my mind and race as if it were the actual race.

The 3-minute mile goal is to teach runners that the impossible is where goals should be set.
