Wordy Wednesday (on Thursday): Steve Prefontaine

I forgot to post a Wordy Wednesday yesterday because it was really a Wacky Wednesday. Time just got away from me.

In honor of the upcoming season opening Corktown 5k this Sunday, some words about racing:

"A lot of people run a race to see who is fastest. I run to see who has the most guts, who can punish himself into an exhausting pace, and then, at the end, punish himself even more. Nobody is going to win a 5,000 meter race after running an easy 2 miles. Not with me. If I lose forcing pace all the way, well, at least I can live with myself." - the legendary Steve Prefontaine
