You can't do in a race what you haven't prepared for.

---

That's the thing about running: your greatest runs are rarely measured by racing success. They are moments in time when running allows you to see how wonderful your life it.

---

Racing is the fun part; it's the reward of all the hard work.

---

Set small goals along the way and don't be overwhelmed by the process.

---

Don't be ashamed or embarrassed to dream big. You're living your life with hope, that's a powerful thing.

---

The journey isn't always perfect, but always worth taking.

---

Erase from your mind that your preparation must be perfect. Hard work + dedication = a shot at your dreams. Keep believing.

---

Do the work. Do the analysis. But feel your run. Feel your race. Feel the joy that is running.

---

Never underestimate the power that one good workout can have on your mind. Keeping the dream alive is half the battle.

---

Get out there and do what you love!
