The Marathon Is Like A Bullfight.

With My Runners Now, They Get Two Month-long Breaks During The Year.

I Didn't Give Myself Enough Breaks During The Training Year To Recover. I Didn't Understand The Power Of Periodization.

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.

Whatever We Accomplish In Life, If It's Solely For Our Own Good, Then It Doesn't Mean That Much. The Things You Do That Affect Others In A Positive Way Are The Ones That Count. Whatever Facet Of Life You're In, God Has Given You A Gift; Do The Best You Can With That Gift.

I Think In Running, To Be Honest, That Even Though Athletes Are Very Dedicated And Are Willing To Train And Do Whatever They Need To Do To Prepare, More Often Than Not They're Not In A Very Professional Environment Where You've Got A High Performance Director And A Coach That Are Really Monitoring Your Daily Activities.
