"If you run, you are a runner. It doesn't matter how fast or how far. It doesn't matter if today is your first day or if you've been running for twenty years. There is no test to pass, no license to earn, no membership card to get. You just run." - John Bingham

    "Running has never failed to give me great end results, and that's why I keep coming back for more!--S.A."
  • "Whether you believe you can or believe you can't, you're probably right."
    -Henry Ford

    "I often hear someone say 'I'm not a real runner'. We are all runners, some just run faster than others. I never met a fake runner."
    -Bart Yasso

    "That's right. I'm out of here. Do not chase me down or text me or try to talk me into going out to lunch. I don't have time to figure out if I have time for a run. I'm just GOING. The world will not fall apart in my absence. I might miss somebody's birthday cake or a discussion of last night's season finale. Even if I do, who cares. I'm coming back with a state of mind three coffees, two flirtatious e-mails and a week of vacation can't buy."

    "Run from bills, run from mortgages, run from work, run from routine, run from your fears, run from your worries, run from relationships, run from commitments, run from handicaps, run from disadvantages, run from your wants, run from needs, run from this, run from that, run run run run run run run..."

    "No matter how slow you go, you're still lapping everybody on the couch."

    "It never gets easier, you just get BETTER."

    "My feet hurt from kicking so much *kitten*."

    I love the NIKE ads, what can I say...

    "Remember: The first 2 miles SUCK." -- from a friend of mine who ran a 1/2 marathon, giving me her best advice on how to push through. And I think it's true no matter how long you've been running...
