“In the military we always say we don’t rise to the level of our expectations, we fall to the level of our training,”
― Can't Hurt Me: Master Your Mind and Defy the Odds
― Can't Hurt Me: Master Your Mind and Defy the Odds
“Running efficiently demands good technique, and running efficiently for 100 miles demands great technique. But the wonderful paradox of running is that getting started requires no technique. None at all. If you want to become a runner, get onto a trail, into the woods, or on a sidewalk or street and run. Go 50 yards if that's all you can handle. Tomorrow, you can go farther.”

“Run for 20 minutes and you’ll feel better. Run another 20 and you might tire. Add on 3 hours and you’ll hurt, but keep going and you’ll see—and hear and smell and taste—the world with a vividness that will make your former life pale.”
