“Running is a very natural activity. If you get too caught up, you find yourself constantly seeking to make running something that it isn’t.”

I often lose motivation, but it’s something I accept as normal.

Runners…you’re competitive, but you want to have fun, too. You want to enjoy life. And runners really get to do that, I think-after we recover.

Every race is totally different.

Age 50 is a lot tougher than 40s

You cannot always run at your best.

I believe in keeping running simple and, in regard to shoes, that would mean no gimmicks, unnecessary cushioning, etc

The real bosses in the capitalist system of market economy are the consumers. They by their buying and by their abstention from buying decide who should own the capital and run the plants. They determine what should be produced and in what quantity and quality.

There’s a part of me that wants to go streak and run outside and jump around and go swim in the ocean and do everything. The other part of me wants to bear down and repeat this kind of performance next year and in the years to come.

The world is changing. Networks without a specific branding strategy will be killed. I envision a world of highly niched services and tightly run companies without room for all the overhead the established networks carry.

The ANC is very concerned (about shedding votes), hence they are pinning their hopes that those rogue elements will run the elections, so rigging will be on the high. There is no doubt about that
