I Was Actually Going To

You Have To Forget Your Last Marathon Before You Try Another. Your Mind Can't Know What's Coming.

For The Novice Runner, I'd Say To Give Yourself At Least 2 Months Of Consistently Running Several Times A Week At A Conversational Pace Before Deciding Whether You Want To Stick With It. Consistency Is The Most Important Aspect Of Training At This Point.

The Irony Of That Is, What Makes It Kind Of Ironic, Is When You Do Become Successful As A Professional Athlete In Particular, A Lot Of The Young Children Who Are Emulating These Stars Do Have A Different Perspective.

The Potential Elite Runner Must Realize That Hard Means Hard, Easy Means Easy And They Must Patiently Seek Out What Combinations Work For Them. They Have To Learn To Be Persistent And Patient With Their Training And Racing.

In Other Words We Have Marketed Our Way Into This Health Crisis.
