Quotes to ponder:
"You tried to push through the race relying upon fitness alone, didn't pace accordingly and burnt all your matches far too early in the race."
"Think ahead. Plan. Pace. Care for your body. But also for your brain and your spirit. Manage."
"Then, when the time comes around when most folks quietly slip into a nursing home you'll be steamrolling happily along with plenty of gas in the tank and plenty of adventures left to live."
