Every time I fail I assume I will be a stronger person for it.

Every time I fail, I assume I will be a stronger person for it. I keep on running figuratively and literally, despite a limp that gets more noticeable with each passing season, because for me there has always been a place to go and a terrible urgency to get there.

Coffee doesn't do it for me; it's running that gets me going.

Years ago, women sat in the kitchen drinking coffee and discussing life. Now they discuss the same topics while they run.

When I first started running, I was so embarrassed I'd walk when cars passed me. I'd pretend I was looking at the flowers!

Running is about more than just putting one foot in front of the other; it is about our lifestyle and who we are.

One hour with a child is like a ten-mile run.
