We all have bad days and bad workouts, when running gets ugly, when split times seem slow, when you wonder why you started. It will pass.

How would you describe the worst run you ever had? Precious!

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.

Rested, Refreshed, and Ready to run, the three Rs of peak performance.

Finish: Even if you run a slower than expected time, you succeed in any marathon when you finish.

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?

What is the purpose of any one workout? Enjoyment? Improvement? Coach said so? Whatever, the hour you run often is the best hour of the day.
