"I put so much in to what I do, to be the best I can be and it doesn't guarantee anything."
"My greatest fear is the fear of failure."
"I don't expect everybody to do what I do. Your body gets used to what you ask of it. If you don't ask much of your body it will not give you much. If you ask a lot it will give you a lot.
"The key for me is to get out the door. Just get out the door and try to improve upon where you were the day before."
"I don't feel that I am that over talented. I just work very hard and that is the reason I've had the success that I've had."
"For those that I've said that I do too much, I say thank you."
"I will do other 100s, just because I can. But I want to race them. At Bighorn, I let myself down. I just finished, but I want to do my best. I want to be able to race a 100, not just finish."
"My first wilderness trips were intimidating but I liked being out of my comfort zone. One time five years ago, I was alone. It was cold and snowy, and I had a blood infection in my leg. The doctor said, 'Don't go!' Sitting back there in the wilderness, I was really questioning my being there. I felt pretty selfish for being away from my family. But I need to be out of my comfort zone."
"You never forget experiences like those, and they help you grow. You can't get that anywhere except in the wilderness and ultrarunning."
"Everything revolves around confidence and belief in myself, and that comes from practice."
