Of All The Races, There Is No

Life Is The Greatest Experiment. Each Of Us Is An Experiment Of One-observer And Subject-making Choices, Living With Them, Recording The Effects.

The Music Of A Marathon Is A Powerful Strain, One Of Those Tunes Of Glory. It Asks Us To Forsake Pleasures, To Discipline The Body, To Find Courage, To Renew Faith And To Become One's Own Person, Utterly And Completely.

There Is Nothing More Certain Than The Defeat Of The Man Who Gives Up.

Like Everyone Else, I Want To Be Challenged. I Want To Find Out Whether Or Not I Am A Coward. I Want To See How Much Effort I Can Put Out . . . What I Can Endure . . . If I Measure Up. Running Allows That.

There Are As Many Reasons For Running As There Are Days In A Year.... But Mostly I Run Because I Am An Animal And A Child.
