CONGRATS-A-MUNDO TO ALL!

SHOUT TO PROF. SANDY!!
“I ran the Hartshorne Masters Mile Championship at Cornell yesterday [1/18]. I broke the world record. I had hoped to be faster but didn’t run for 3 weeks because of Covid, So now I have the world record for the mile, the 8K and the 12K Hope the snow disappears so I can run in the park.” (More: Facebook, 6ABC)

RUNNIN’ OFF AT THE MOUTH

“As a runner, you have to face the truth about yourself on a regular basis, and it makes you more honest. You can’t pretend to be faster than you are. You can’t pretend that you are better prepared than you are. You cannot pretend to be a runner; you actually have to run.” –John Bingham

“12 minute mile is just as far as a 6 minute mile.” –Unknown Runner

“I run because if I didn’t, I’d be sluggish and glum and spend too much time on the couch. I run to breathe the fresh air. I run to explore. I run to escape the ordinary. I run to savor the trip along the way. Life becomes a little more vibrant, a little more intense. I like that.” –Dean Karnazes
