When you hit a certain spot you Sprint no matter how you feel inside or what your co-runner thinks. You just go! In training as a nickel, you sprint because you need to sprint! You just do it! In racing people see it and call it courage, but it is attitude; determination; duty.

Humans are a TOUGH animal! We can do anything.

The FEAR of becoming dehydrated causes dehydration. As with so many things in our life, it is because we KNOW it is a problem that it is a problem.

Kids are afraid that if they race too fast they will get tired. Way too much fear and way too little COURAGE.

I thought perhaps people with injuries could be subject to a starters gun to cure them.

COURAGE is not a quality you teach. Courage is the by-product of self-discipline. It is an ATTITUDE.

News people were holding me up as a symbol of defiance to the boycott and I couldn't even run.
