To be a great champion you must believe you are the best.  If you’re not, pretend you are.

You Cannot Pretend

Posted in Quotes, Running, tagged , , , , , on May 27, 2018| Leave a Comment »

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.
