Injuries are our best teachers.

Sometimes the road to wellness isnt a well-marked expressway.

Train where your fitness is NOW, not where you want to be.

Fear is what makes you come alive, the lure of the unknown - can I do this? - thats where the growth comes from, the pain. I dont remember the running effortlessly; I remember the hard times; adversity breathes transformation.

Overcoming the difficulties of an ultramarathon reminds me that I can overcome the difficulties of life

We strive toward a goal, and whether we achieve it or not is important, but it's not what's most important. What matters is how we move toward that goal.

Only the most saintly and delusional among us welcomes all pain as challenge, perceives all loss as harsh blessing.
