Every year I want to experience something that makes me say, "this is the best day of my life."

Nobody had a bigger heart or passion to win than America's Greatest Running Legend, Steve Prefontaine "Pre." Watch the movies Prefontaine, Without Limits, or Fire on the Track to see what I'm talking about.

Be open to other people's opinions, ideas, and try new things. One of the best ways to learn is to feed off other people's experiences.

Be someone's best friend and be there when he or she needs you.

I challenge myself everyday to be the most positive and enthusiastic person I know.

Go out of your way to make an outstanding first impression.
