I don't really study the guys that I'm racing against.
It takes faith and the courage to risk failure in order to realize one's destiny. Having had my share of failures throughout my career I know that it is well worth the risk.
I race kind of sparingly.
Nothing is worth your integrity. Not success, not money, not fame. Nothing.
I want to run every race with a big heart.
I may not drink an electrolyte beverage during the race. If I am running in an hour, I won't need one. But if you're running an hour-and-a-half to two hours or more, maybe you need a little bit of the electrolytes.
