When I Was About To Break A

May Is A Very Early Time In The Year And The Weather Is Usually Bad. You Cannot Run A Fast Mile Race If There Is A Strong Wind, Because It Makes Your Running Uneven.

Just Because They Say It's Impossible Doesn't Mean You Can't Do It.

It's A Question Of Spreading The Available Energy, Aerobic And Anaerobic, Evenly Over Four Minutes. If You Run One Part Too Fast, You Pay A Price. If You Run Another Part More Slowly Your Overall Time Is Slower.

Your Spikes, Which Were Really Quite Long Then, Would Catch The Material Of The Track And Your Shoe Would Get Heavier. I Was Simply Filing Them Down And Rubbing Some Graphite On The Spikes, So That I Thought I Would Run More Effectively.

It Is A Paradox To Say The Human Body Has No 'limit.' There Must Be A Limit To The Speed At Which Men Can Run. I Feel This May Be Around 3:30 For The Mile. However, Another Paradox Remains - If An Athlete Manages To Run 3:30, Another Runner Could Be Found To Marginally Improve On That Time.
