I Can't Tell You Why A Particular

I've Run A Lot Of Miles Over The Years, Some Fast And Some Not So Fast. I've Won Some Big Races And I've Had Some Big Disappointments, But I Enjoy The Freedom Of Running And The Challenge Of Training And Competition As Much Now As When I First Started Back In High School.

I Run Four Miles Most Days, At About 8:00 To 8:15 Pace. It's Totally Relaxed.

I Like The Marathon Because It's One Race Where You Can Find Out Who's Really The Toughest. On The Track, Sometimes A Guy Can Just Pull Away, And You Want To Stay With Him But You Don't Have The Leg Speed. The Marathon Is Slow Enough That Anyone Can Stay With You If He Wants, If He Has The Will. The Marathon Is Ultimately A Test Of Will.

I Had As Many Doubts As Anyone Else. Standing On The Starting Line, We're All Cowards.

You Have To Change Things In Order To Get To Where You Want To Go. And Things Might Get Worse. But If You're Not Getting Where You Want To Be, Already, In A Sense, It's As Bad As It Can Get.
