A perfect run has nothing to do with distance. It's when your stride feels comfortable.

I'm not a runner. I don't run.

You cannot always run at your best.

If you want to be a successful runner, you have to consider everything. It's no good just thinking about endurance and not to develop fine speed.

It's easier to pick off a fast runner than to pick off a lazy runner.

When you run the marathon, you run against the distance, not against the other runners and not against the time.

Running is a great metaphor for life. You set a goal, and then you get to work. How well you do is a direct reflection of how hard you work. It's a mental game, too. There are setbacks along the way, but the true test of a runner is how you overcome and push past them.

If you have a perfectionist streak - and who doesn't? - running can kill the perfectionist inside you.

Let's face it: I am not a professional runner.

People are so easily impressed by running, but I run pretty frequently.
