Getting Injured
(2022’09’17’S: Prompt 8/8*) During a Shawmont Eva 15 miler, I was wrapping up in tandem with Jimmy Dee, who was getting back to being his usual faithful self after recovering from a race-induced owie. When I mentioned to him that what stood out was his ability to get back into a Shawmont run so quickly after recovering, he had a ready response: Practice makes perfect.

You have to forget your last marathon before you try another. Your mind can’t know what’s coming.
--- Frank Shorter, 1972 Olympic marathon gold medalist
In order to cash in on all the training, get the rest. If you can’t run as fast as you want to, you haven’t rested enough.
--- Ted Corbitt, often called “the father of American long distance running”, 4-time winner of the Philadelphia marathon and founding president of New York Road Runners
We must wake up to the fact that athletics is not, nor ever can be perfected; there will always be more to learn.
--- Arthur “Greatheart” Newton, British ultra-runner who had a serious impact on restoring 100-mile ultras prior to WW II
