running, running, running

I read several quotes about running that were all good (and mostly true). Here are a few of them:

"You have to forget your last marathon before you try another. Your mind can't know what's coming."

Frank Shorter

"I'm never going to run this again."

Grete Waitz after winning her first of nine New York City marathons

"Ask yourself: 'Can I give more?'. The answer is usually: 'Yes'."

Paul Tergat

Running is like mouthwash; if you can feel the burn, it's working.

Brian Tackett

Life is short... running makes it seem longer.

Baron Hansen

Bill Bowerman was, and is, and ever shall be a generous, ornery, profane, beatific, unyielding, antic, impenetrably complex Oregon original. As a freshman, I found him deeply disturbing. Once he bet me a case of Nutrament that I couldn't break 2.00 for the 880 on a freezing Saturday morning. I ran with control, hitting the 440 in 60. I could feel myself accelerating in the last lap. Near the finish I knew I'd done it. I slowed and turned, gasping to hear the time. "2.00,3" he said. "Good try." I leaped on him, screaming made insane with outrage. He allowed me to wrestle the watch away from him. It read 1.56,6.

Kenny Moore

Jogging is very beneficial. It's good for your legs and your feet. It's also very good for the ground. It makes it feel needed.

Charles Schulz, Peanuts

That Which Does Not Kill You.. Makes You Stronger..

Nietzche

"Some running is good, more is better, and too much is just enough." -
