  • He also knew the role that money played in getting things accomplished. Money had always been a secondary interest to him personally. He had made quite a lot of it, to be sure. but it had never been life’s cheif objective and he had little time for anyone who thought it was. Nonetheless, he knew the legnths some men would go for it and he himself had never been adverse to playing to that side of human nature if it suited his purposes.

Quotes

A running friend from England once dropped into town, and when I told him how I lived and worked at a running shoe store making maybe $8 an hour, trained all the time, and lived on rice, beef and beans, he looked at me with earnest jealousy and said: “you’re living the dream life.” Only another running geek would have said something like that, and I agreed with him. I was embracing the secret every distance runner uncovers- that having the discipline and sacrifice is infinitely more enjoyable that suffocating in pure comfort.

—workign hard at sport is more enjoyable that comfort
