The endurance athlete is the ultimate realist.
You've got to be a little bored to be doing really good training.
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.

Road racing is rock 'n roll; track is Carnegie Hall.
Overtraining is the biggest problem incurred by runners who lack the experience or discipline to cope with their own enthusiasm.
