The endurance athlete is the ultimate realist.

Road racing is rock 'n roll; track is Carnegie Hall.

During long, slow distance training, you should think of yourself as a thoroughbred disguised as a plow horse. No need to give yourself away by running fast.

You've got to be a little bored to be doing really good training.

There are no secrets to running success,anyone who says there are is probably trying to sell you something.

Overtraining is the biggest problem incurred by runners who lack the experience or discipline to cope with their own enthusiasm.

Happy people don't run a 3:47 mile.
