I think [my kids] are runners. They definitely have the background. I try to help them as much as I can.

Most of us have enough areas in our lives where we have to meet others' expectations. Let your running be about your own hopes and dreams.

Nobody said it's going to be easy. You have to dig into yourself. Think about your family. Think about the journey itself. THINK IN THE MOMENT.

Every runner has a specific motivation and inspiration for running a marathon. This year, all 36,000 of us will 'run together' to demonstrate the spirit of the marathon. We will still have our individual motivations, but we will be unified under the Boston Strong umbrella.

I am excited to be part of Generation UCAN. I believe this product, its team and the company's vision will change the face of sports nutrition. Since I've been using Generation UCAN for my workouts, I've noticed improvements in both my performance and metabolic state. I recommend all runners try it to experience the benefits firsthand.

The beauty of my sport is that you can do it from anywhere.

I love to read autobiographies. [What is your favorite autobiography?] the autobiography of Coach John Wooden. Everybody has a struggle so it's about seeing how they overcome it and be the best they can.
