7. MARATHON "The body does not want you to do this. As you run, it tells you to stop but the mind must be strong. You always go too far for your body. You must handle the pain with strategy... It is not age; it is not diet. It is the will to succeed." - Jacqueline Gareau, 1980 Boston Marathon champ

8. GETTING THERE! " The difference between the mile and the marathon is the difference between burning your fingers with a match and being slowly roasted over hot coals. " - Hal Higdon
