Inspiration as the Sun Breaks Through the Clouds

Unedited iPhone shots this morning. It's good to be home:-)

If one could run without getting tired, I don't think one would often want to do anything else.

--C. S. Lewis

Remember, the feeling you get from a good run is far better than the feeling you get from sitting around wishing you were running. 

--Sarah Condor

If you can fill the unforgiving minute with 60 seconds worth of distance, run, yours is the earth and everything that’s in it, and — which is more — you’ll be a man, my son.

--Rudyard Kipling

I always loved running…it was something you could do by yourself, and under your own power. You could go in any direction, fast or slow as you wanted, fighting the wind if you felt like it, seeking out new sights just on the strength of your feet and the courage of your lungs.

--Jesse Owens

~

Believe that you can run farther or faster. Believe that you’re young enough, old enough, strong enough, and so on to accomplish everything you want to do. Don’t let worn-out beliefs stop you from moving beyond yourself.

--John Bingham

~

Go fast enough to get there, but slow enough to see.

--Jimmy Buffett

To be a runner is to learn continual life lessons. To be a coach is not just to teach these lessons but also to feel them in the core of your marrow. The very act of surpassing personal limits in training and racing will bend the mind and body toward a higher purpose for the rest of my runners' lives. Settling for mediocrity-settling instead of pushing-those who learn to be the best version of themselves know the secret to a full life.
