If I performed poorly, I knew the eyes of the sports world would be turned away from me. In that situation I knew the NCAA would crush me for sure. But if I could run well, they would not dare to hit me with everyone looking in my direction. I HAD to have a good race.

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

There is NOTHING you can do with your running time that is better for you than running. Any other activity only pulls you down and erases passion.

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.

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

This life is made to change all reality. We are here for the benefit, happiness, and welfare of a new reality; a new direction.
