Confidence is a belief in myself and my ability. I built my confidence through hard training. I believed there was no one out there working any harder than me.
Joan BenoitThere will always be something to strive for. My hope is for the heart to strive forever.
Joan BenoitMarathoning is a metaphor for life, so there are a lot of parallels you can draw. I tell people to follow your dream, follow your heart, follow your passion, run your own race and believe in yourself. I think anybody who wants to succeed has to have passion. My love for this sport, you can't instill it in someone else.
