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

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.

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?

Putting miles in your training log is like putting money in the bank. You begin to draw interest on it immediately.

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

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

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