It is not so much that I began to run, but that I continued.

The pride in finishing a marathon is much greater than all the pain endured during the marathon.

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

I run, therefore I am. And given the years improved fitness adds to our lives, if I did not run, maybe I would no longer be.

I double-knot my shoe laces. It's a pain untying your shoes afterward-particularly if you get them wet-but so is stopping in the middle of a race to tie them.

Life is a series of hard and easy runs.

Different people have different reasons for racing, but one is simply the incentive to get out and run, increase mileage and feel good.
