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

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

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

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

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.

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.
