Here are some great sports quotes from Steve Prefontaine…
A lot of people run a race to see who is fastest. I run to see who has the most guts, who can punish himself into exhausting pace, and then at the end, punish himself even more.
I’m going to work so that it’s a pure guts race at the end, and if it is, I am the only one who can win it.
Somebody may beat me, but they are going to have to bleed to do it.
Something inside of me just said ‘Hey, wait a minute, I want to beat him,’ and I just took off.
You have to wonder at times what you’re doing out there. Over the years, I’ve given myself a thousand reasons to keep running, but it always comes back to where it started. It comes down to self-satisfaction and a sense of achievement.
