Racing is the fun part; it's the reward of all the hard work.

Progress is rarely a straight line. There are always bumps in the road, but you can make the choice to keep looking ahead.

Acknowledge all of your small victories. They will eventually add up to something great.

That's the thing about running: your greatest runs are rarely measured by racing success. They are moments in time when running allows you to see how wonderful your life it.

Don't try to rush progress. Remember -- a step forward, no matter how small, is a step in the right direction. Keep believing.

Do the work. Do the analysis. But feel your run. Feel your race. Feel the joy that is running.

There are a million reasons why you can't. Focus on the few reasons why you can.

The journey isn't always perfect, but always worth taking.

After we put my son to bed, my husband and I curl up and watch a movie or TV. That's when I finally put up my feet and have my glass of wine and a brownie.

Once you make the decision that you will not fail, the heart and the body will follow.

Erase from your mind that your preparation must be perfect. Hard work + dedication = a shot at your dreams. Keep believing.

Yeah, Quirrell was a great teacher. There was just that minor drawback of him having Lord Voldemort sticking out of the back of his head!

Keep Moving Forward

I don't know who I am but you know, life is for learning.

Now, it it well known that one cannot step on a tack without saying something about it.

What though I cannot meet my bills? What though I suffer toothache's ills? What though I swallow countless pills?
