“Running to me is many things but most importantly it reminds me that every cause has an effect. With running, there are very few excuses and no such thing as “luck”. You put in the work day in and day out and you get better. If you decide not to run for a week, that’s fine, but you won’t get faster. It’s taught me how to take responsibility and to look at myself first when trying to solve anything.” – @therealmattduffy by webmaster | Oct 16, 2017 | Instagram

While training for CIM, @that_runner_girl_goes let us know what running means to her: “Running has been a strong asset to fulfilling one of my greatest passions, traveling. I have gotten to race a 5K in Abu Dhabi, a 10K in the Florida Keys, a half marathon through the streets of Philadelphia, and my first marathon was a run through the beautiful, scenic streets of Oahu. I love having so many options in California and being able to make small vacations out of each race. Just this weekend I got away to San Jose for a half marathon and then got to explore a city I knew little about. I know that this is just the beginning of my race destinations. How cool would it be to run through the snow, the forest, and end at the ocean?! Maybe Alaska will be soon!” How do you? by webmaster | Oct 10, 2017 | Instagram
“When training for a Marathon, people often look at the whole plan and get nervous… ‘Can I run this much in a week? I’ve never ran that far! I don’t know if I can do that workout’ these are thoughts that go through all of our heads. I take the approach of using that as motivation and try to spin it to ‘How can I run that much in a week? What’s it going to feel like to be that far? How can I set myself up to tackle this workout?’ Looking a few days forward in my training and figuring out how I can get my training in, rather than if I can get my training in will always be the approach I take.” – @therealmattduffy by webmaster | Oct 5, 2017 | Instagram
