Sometimes You've Got To Go Through Hell

Some Seek The Comfort Of Their Therapist's Office, Other Head To The Corner Pub And Dive Into A Pint, But I Chose Running As My Therapy.

Never, However, Do I Take Shortcuts. There Is Not Path Of Least Resistance In My Training. What I Do Equates To Hard Manual Labor, Disciplined Grunt Work. Once You Permit Yourself To Compromise, You Fail Yourself. You Might Be Able To Fool Some People, But You Can Never Fool Yourself. Your Toughest Critic Is The One You Face Every Morning In The Mirror.

Don't Confuse Comfort With Happiness.

For Me, As For So Many Runners, There Really Are No Finish Lines. Runs End; Running Doesn't.

I Run With A Credit Card And A Cell Phone, So When There Is Not A 7-eleven Around, Like Some Of The Country Roads Out There, I Can Get Him To Deliver A Pizza To Me. And I Kind Of Give Them A Coordinate, A Corner.
