I didn't train all that time just to come here and get it over with as fast as I can

I'm not sure who invented dodgeball, but I can almost guarantee you that it wasn't the shortest kid in the class.

Long Distance training can be a positive & constructive form of selfishness. After all, once you're at the starting line, you're there by yourself. No one can run a single step for you. No one can jump in & help you. No one but you can make the decisions about what to do to keep going. It's all up to you.

Marathons are about tenacity as much as talent.

Don't let worn-out beliefs stop you from moving beyond yourself.

Running is not just exercise; it is a lifestyle.

It was being a runner that mattered, not how fast or how far I could run. The joy was in the act of running and in the journey, not in the destination.
