These are a few of my favorite things 

Mantras

• Run with purpose (keep your end goal in mind as you run)

• Get comfortable being uncomfortable (if it was easy everyone would do it)

• This is just another long run with an audience - which makes it more fun! (when preparing to race a marathon)

• You didn't come this far just to come this far (you have the capability of running more and harder)

• Your competition is training today (when you feel like no one around you is doing what you do)

• Anything is possible (never doubt how far you can go or push yourself)
