There is always the excitement of running races.

Many run primarily for the exercise, but others run to condition themselves for well-publicized races of various distances.

We run to win, not just to be in the race.

We're involved in racing because there's that element of competition. But there's that desire to push yourself beyond the natural comfort zone and the boundaries that are preset if you like, and to be better than the rest.

I've found that my athletes run their best races after about 10 weeks of intense training.

I'm a competitor. I really enjoyed the race more than just going out and running to run.

I love to run, but training can be hard, especially with a family and a crazy travel schedule. I often do sprints with my kids, where they bike and I run along side them so we can 'race' each other for a quarter-mile or shorter repeats.

Since I achieved something, running has exploded in my country. For me sometimes it is difficult even to know who the athletes are who are competing at the highest level. There are thousands.

Many athletes are seeking new and novel ways of pushing their limits, and the challenge of running back-to-back races is certainly one way to test the boundaries.

I think we have the approach that every race is a sprint. Some races are just longer sprints than others.
