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

Every day gives you an opportunity to improve. With every run, you can try to be better. Not just a better runner, but a better person.

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.

The only magic in our lives as runners is the magic of consistency. Not every run will make you feel great.

Every human being born within the United States of parents not owing allegiance to any foreign sovereignty is in the language of your Constitution itself, a natural born citizen.

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.

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