If you feel like eating, eat. Let your body tell you what it wants.

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

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.

Running is 80 percent mental.

It's funny. I'm attracted to things that don't have any impact on life. People say I've done a great thing for women. I don't think I have. People say I've given people courage. That makes me feel good, but I don't see how I do that. I think my running is a selfish thing. But it provides the challenge that allows me to feel good about myself. How can I expect to do well in other activities if I don't feel good about myself?

Love yourself, for who and what you are; protect your dream and develop your talent to the fullest extent.

Keep varying the program. Your body will tell you what to do.
