Whatever, the hour you run often is the best hour of the day.

It can be said that the first half of the marathon is 20 miles long; the second half, 6.2 more.

Each runner's capacity to absorb hard training is different. Find your own unique level of comfort and success will be yours.

There's one rule of thumb that suggests that you need one day of recovery for every mile run in a race. Another rule of thumb...suggests one day...for every kilometer run in anger.

The marathon never ceases to be a race of joy, a race of wonder.

Motivation remains key to the marathon: the motivation to begin; the motivation to continue; the motivation never to quit.

Even when you have gone as far as you can, and everything hurts, and you are staring at the specter of self-doubt, you can find a bit more strength deep inside you, if you look closely enough.
