RUNNIN’ OFF AT THE MOUTH

“The greatest stimulator of my running career was fear.” –Herb Elliot

“I have met my hero, and he (she) is me.” –George Sheehan

“Since I’d read WALDEN in high school, I had been haunted by Thoreau’s charge that when I die, I might discover that I had not lived. If I ran a marathon, I thought, I will have lived. I also thought I might die.” –Benjamin Cheever (AMEN! –Teddio)

RUMINATIONS #2

Notice in those days they didn’t have running clothes.
I wore some jean shorts and a t shirt.
I did have some old gym shoes.
I ran a 3:45 and was 5th woman overall… Those were the days.
