Food for Run and Thought 2


「We run, not because we think it is doing us good, but because we enjoy it and cannot help ourselves...The more restricted our society and work become, the more necessary it will be to find some outlet for this craving for freedom. No one can say, 'You must not run faster than this, or jump higher than that.' The human spirit is indomitable. 」Sir Roger Bannister, first runner to run a sub-4 minute mile

「Racing teaches us to challenge ourselves. It teaches us to push beyond where we thought we could go. It helps us to find out what we are made of. This is what we do. This is what it's all about. 」PattiSue Plumer, U.S. Olympian

「The truth is that we can learn to condition our minds, bodies, and emotions to link pain or pleasure to whatever we choose. By changing what we link pain and pleasure to, we will instantly change our behavior. 」Tony Robbins, American self-help author and motivational speaker

「The training is constant. You just have to stick with it and you'll be successful. I use running to stay healthy and burn off the day's stress. 」Dorothy Metcalf-Lindenburger, NASA Astronaut

「Training for shorter race distances makes the body use more fast-twitch muscle fibers and leads to better leg strength, cardiovascular fitness, and ultimately, faster times at all distances. 」Sean Coster, a running coach, exercise physiologist for the Nike Sports center, and cofounder of Run Portland
