No Longer Conscious Of My Movement, I

I Found Longer Races Boring. I Found The Mile Just Perfect.

I Raced Supremely Well. I Felt I Was As Well Fitted To Do It As I Had Ever Been, And As Perhaps I Might Ever Be. I Went Climbing Three Weeks Before, Because I Was Feeling Fed Up With Running.

The Human Spirit Is Indomitable. No One Can Ever Say You Must Not Run Faster Than This Or Jump Higher Than That. There Will Never Be A Time When The Human Spirit Will Not Be Able To Better Existing Records.

I Came From Such A Simple Origin, Without Any Great Privilege, And I Would Say I Also Wanted To Make A Mark. It Wasn't Until I Was About 15 That I Appeared In A Race.

We Run, Not Because We Think It Is Doing Us Good, But Because We Enjoy It And Cannot Help Ourselves...the More Restricted Our Society And Work Become, The More Necessary It Will Be To Find Some Outlet For This Craving For Freedom. No One Can Say, 'you Must Not Run Faster Than This, Or Jump Higher Than That.' The Human Spirit Is Indomitable.
