The difference between the mile and the marathon is the difference between burning your fingers with a match and being slowly roasted over hot coals.

I finished a marathon.

In the big city, if the man next door happens to be a slum landlord, a Mafia bag man, or a long distance runner, what does it matter, as long as he puts his garbage out on Tuesdays?

There is no such thing as an average runner. We are all above average.

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

Keep your dream in front of you. Never let it go regardless of how farfetched it might seem.

The most important day in any running program is rest. Rest days give your muscles time to recover so you can run again. Your muscles build in strength as you rest.
