How Does A Kid From Coos Bay,

You Said I Was Weak. You Said I Couldn't Do It. Thank You. You Gave Me Everything I Needed To Prove You Wrong.

Don’t Be Afraid To Give Up The Good For The Great.

Don't Let Fatigue Make A Coward Of You.

No One Will Ever Win A 5,000-meter By Running An Easy Two Miles. Not Against Me.

Every Once In A While I Think, 'what Am I Doing Out Here Running, Busting Myself Up? Life Could Be So Much Easier. The Other Guys Are Out Having Fun, Doing Other Things, Why Not Me?'
