-Hal Higdon
"You can actually suffer a little bit more going slowly than when you're going really fast. A faster marathon might even be easier than a slow one, in terms of what it takes out of you mentally."
-Frank Shorter
"Make your last thought before the start of a marathon: If I'm not worried that I'm running a little too slow in the first half, then I'm probably running too fast."
