Running, to me, is more than just a physical exercise... it's a consistent reward for victory!

Amby Burfoot, Runner's World Editor At Large（同上20）
24、 My first race was a 60- meter dash, with starting blocks. I was more excited than nervous. I came in last, but I wasn't disappointed, because it was so much fun. My coach treated everybody like winners - that was probably the most important thing.
我有生以来头一次参加正式比赛是一场60米的短跑赛，我还用了起跑器。比赛带给我的兴奋远远大于紧张。我跑了倒数第一名，但是我一点失落的感觉都没有，因为比赛的过程真是太好玩了。我的教练像对待获胜者一样对待他的每位队员--我想这可能是带来成功最重要的一件事。

我的一次真正的跑步赛事是15岁时参加的一次1英里跑。我以5分20秒赢得了比赛。我很惊喜自己能赢得比赛，这次胜利鼓励我和我的兄弟查理，我的朋友杰森一起加入到学校的越野跑队。那是1963年的事情了，直到今天我们还在跑着。

Anthony Famiglietti, two-time Olympian and six-time national champion
34、 Running gives me a sense of controlling my life. I like the finiteness of runs, the fact that I have a clear beginning and end. I set a goal and I achieve it. A good run makes you feel sort of holy.

Dr. Jill Biden, Second lady and college professor 美国副总统拜登的夫人
46、 The great advantage of our sport over all others is that we don't need a ball or a team or a field, or even, according to some, shoes. We just need to stand someplace, imagine ourselves in the center of a circle, pick one out of the 360 degrees available to us, and head thataway.
我们所爱的跑步运动，相比较其他所有运动项目所具有的巨大优势就是：我们不需要球，球队或者场地；甚至于有些跑步者，他们连鞋都不需要。我们所需要做的就是站在一处，想像自己在一个圆的中心，选择360度内的任何一个可以前行的方向，朝着那个方向奔跑就是了。
