“Disease, then, is one of those bad experiences that turns information into knowledge and knowledge into wisdom. The bad experiences that make you love yourself and your body and the world. And make you know that you are in a game that has to have a happy ending.”

“Running is just such a monestary-- a retreat, a place to commune with God and yourself, a place for psychological and spiritual renewal.”
George Sheehan, George Sheehan on Running to Win: How to Achieve the Physical, Mental, and Spiritual Victories“And while these pounds were being shed, while the physiological miracles were occurring with the heart and muscle and metabolism, psychological marvels were taking place as well. Just so, the world over, bodies, minds, and souls are constantly being born again, during miles on the road.”
George Sheehan, George Sheehan on Running to Win: How to Achieve the Physical, Mental, and Spiritual Victories“For every runner who tours the world running marathons, there are thousands who run to hear the leaves and listen to the rain, and look to the day when it is suddenly as easy as a bird in flight.”
George Sheehan“The true runner is a very fortunate person. He has found something in him that is just perfect.”
George Sheehan“The mind's first step to self-awareness must be through the body.”
George Sheehan“Success means having the courage, the determination, and the will to become the person you believe you were meant to be.”

George Sheehan, Running & Being: The Total Experience“The distance runner who accepts the past in the person he is, and sees the future as a promise rather than a threat, is completely and utterly in the present. He is absorbed in his encounter with the everyday world. He is mysteriously reconciling the separations of body and mind, of pain and pleasure, of the conscious and the unconsciou. He is repairing the rent, and healing the wound in the divided self. He has found a way to make the ordinary extraordinary; the commonplace, unique; the everyday, eternal.”
