One skill that separates good from almost-good runners is an ability to concentrate for an entire race, whether it is a mile or a marathon.

Don't try to rush progress. Remember -- a step forward, no matter how small, is a step in the right direction. Keep believing.

That's the thing about running: your greatest runs are rarely measured by racing success. They are moments in time when running allows you to see how wonderful your life it.

Don't be ashamed or embarrassed to dream big. You're living your life with hope, that's a powerful thing.

You can't do in a race what you haven't prepared for.

Hill sprints are good for everyone!

Running allows me to set my mind free. Nothing seems impossible, nothing unattainable.
