You already have everything you need to be a long-distance athlete. It's mindset, not miles, that separates those who do from those who dream.

We run to undo the damage we've done to body and spirit. We run to find some part of ourselves yet undiscovered.

I'm not saying running could solve all of the world's problems, but I think it would be a good start.

Trying harder doesn’t always equal more success; it leads to more frustration, less satisfaction, and giving up.

Running is not just exercise; it is a lifestyle.

The miracle isn't that I finished. The miracle is that I had the courage to start.

If you run, you are a runner. It doesn't matter how fast or how far. It doesn't matter if today is your first day or if you've been running for twenty years. There is no test to pass, no license to earn, no membership card to get. You just run.
