People say they can do great things, but runners never become runners until they run, and you will never become whatever it is you wish to be, unless you do it by taking that first step.

Put your Body First!

People who run for the love of running understand that life is about moving forward.

People who work out are so gullible. They think they'll live longer. Well, good luck to them. It's a shame most of them aren't bright enough to realise that the extra time added to their life when they're eighty and too old to do anything productive with it is roughly equal to all the time wasted in the gym when they're young and capable of having fun.

Run for fun. Run for exercise. Run for a better life.

Runners don’t just run to strengthen their bodies, they run to strengthen their spirits.

She transcends her sport, which is what any sport needs...And she does it while smiling the whole time. It's kind of a joke, but then again it's not, especially if you're a male pro trailing in her wake. To have this woman in the middle of such a suffer fest out there crushing people and smiling all the way...

Somehow I find the energy to continue the run. Part of the high that comes after finishing a long run is overcoming the wall, that point when your body crashes but your mind keeps moving you forward.

Some men’s chests are more buttlike than some women’s butts.

Some people do not really hate junk food. They merely love themselves a lot.

Some people when they see cheese, chocolate or cake they don't think of calories.

Sometimes just getting up and moving is victory enough.

Rage, recover, repeat.

Running changes you from the inside out.

Run, lift, stretch, move, move, move to live

Run likes you’re chasing somebody who owes you money.

Running is exercise for the body and the brain.

Running is not just exercise for your body, it tends to get your whole life in better shape.

Safeguarding our health will allow us to fulfill our divine potential and serve others more effectively.

Set your mind first and your body will follow.

Shut up and run.

Some of the most memorable paths I've taken have been detours.

Some people do not afford a healthy diet and lifestyle because of their health insurance.

Some people plan on being disciplined as soon as they achieve something that cannot be achieved without discipline.

Sometimes the steepest, most challenging and most rewarding paths in life are not meant to be walked, but crawled.

So often we say, ‘You need to sleep when your baby sleeps’ but that’s never the case. When your baby is sleeping, you’re trying to get everything else done.

Sore muscles are nothing compared to the pain of regret.

- Sort out the sort ofs from the maybes, and maybe you will start walking in the right direction, like you’re on a treadmill. - You have your direction. I have my direction. As for the correct direction, the one direction - it does not exist... -Jarod Kintz and Stefan D

Stagnant people tend to live stagnant lives.

Stay healthy so that you can use your wealth to buy pleasures and not painkillers.

Strength comes from deep within. Strengthen your mind and make your body listen to what your mind believes.

Such then is the nature of quasispecies : the density of the sequence cloud at any point in sequence space is determined by the relative fitness of the sequence; regions of the cloud representing sequences of lesser fitness will be less densely populated and those with higher fitness, most populated. Here lies the most powerful quality of viral quasispecies: the density distribution of fitness variants dictates that sequences are represented at frequencies in relation to their relative fitness. Genomes with lower fitness will replicate poorly, or not at all, and the fittest genomes will replicate most efficiently. It therefore follows that there is a large bias toward the production of well-adapted genotypes: there are more of them, and they undergo most replicative cycles. This can permit viruses to experience evolutionary adaptation at rates that are orders of magnitude higher than those that could be achieved by truly random unbiased mutation. Sequences rapidly condense around the fittest area of the sequence space. Should the environment change, and, therefore, selective pressures change, a quasispecies can opportunistically exploits its inherent adaptive potential. Genotypes rapidly and ever-faster gravitate toward the cloud's new notational center of gravity. Changes in the fitness landscape of the sequence space that is occupied by a quasispecies are the natural consequence of altered selective pressures operating on the virus population. Such alterations may be the consequence of changed immunologic pressures exerted by the host, the application of antiviral drug therapy, or even cross-species transmission requiring the virus to adapt to a new host. Genotypes that once occupied the 'central' space, reserved for the fittest genotypes, are reduced in frequency and now occupy the more sparsely populated fringes of the fitness landscape; the very edge of the sequence cloud if you will. Here too lies an advantage for a quasispecies: it has a memory. The once best-adapted genotypes, now at a fitness disadvantage, can persist in the quasispecies as minor sequence variants. Under circumstances of fluctuating selective pressures, the ability of the population to recall an 'old' genome variant is a great asset. The quasispecies can rapidly respond and adapt by plucking out a preexisting variant and quickly coalescing around it to recreate an optimal fitness landscape.

Somewhere along the way, I forgot why I'm doing this. I want to be bigger. I want to be better. I want to need no one

Sports teach us the value of facing yourself and others honestly. You can only grow if you let go of denial and embrace what is real and true.

Start from where you are. Empower yourself. Adjust habits. Triumph over those habits -- this is how we EAT folks! This is how it's done!

Stop taking identity in illness and start taking identity in wellness

Stop using the medical system and start using the self care system

Sweating during a workout is not your body losing the water, it’s your body losing the weight.

Sweat is a release of fat, of pain, of victory!

Take a close look at nature and you’ll see that every living creature is wired for mutation and variation. The fact that people can say, “I’m not the same person I used to be,” is the greatest of all miracles.

The activity which seems unthinkable today can become your warm-up in the future!

Take the admission to the gym to avoid the admission to the hospital.

The answer is in your dreams, the ones you dream while you’re asleep and the ones you dream while you’re awake.

Taking care of your body is insurance for your soul.

The Books are our best friends that provide us right path in deep darkness.

The aim of the taper is to minimise accumulated fatigue and fill up the fuel stores to arrive at the start line fresh.

The brain is like a muscle; books are the diet and writing is the workout.

The darkness will always know your name but you don’t have to answer when it calls.

The easy path will seldom lead where you need to go.

The geometry of beauty is the visible signal of adaptively valuable objects: safe, food-rich, explorable, learnable habitats, and fertile, healthy dates, mates, and babies.
