Răbdarea necesară ca să stăpânești maratonul este o abilitate transferabilă. Puterea de a adopta perspectiva pe termen lung, de a depune zilnic aceeași muncă fără strălucire, de a găsi bucurie în tot acest efort, de a pune deoparte câte ceva pentru inevitabilele dificultăți."-Meb Keflezighi, 26 Marathons: What I Learned About Faith, Identity, Running, and Life from My Marathon Career
