I love the big fresh starts, the clean slates like birthdays and new years, but I also really like the idea that we can get up every morning and start over.

We can thank God for everything good, and all the rest we don't comprehend yet.

Thank God for running. It is the ultimate detox for me, whether my poison is bubbles, a foul mood, or a bad attitude. If I combat inertia, get out, and get moving, eventually every kind of toxin works its way out.

If there were any people who were my role models I would just say it was my family's influence and the family and the kids around me.

Cycling is such an endurance sport. I don't think it's the worst thing ever to start when you're in your twenties.

There is something magical about running; after a certain distance, it transcends the body. Then a bit further, it transcends the mind. A bit further yet, and what you have before you, laid bare, is the soul.

We either live with intention or exist by default.
