Number one

Article Abstract:

A runner sees himself and his fellows not as fleet cheetahs and gazelles, but as waddling penguins. Far back of the pack of runners he and his fellow penguins envision themselves as sure and swift. As they run they see each new race as another chance to overcome their lifestyle failures.

The full-throttle waddle

Article Abstract:

Runners faced with the question of how fast they should run can have more than one answer depending on the particular stage of their running life. When runners first begin running they usually try to run as fast as possible, but later they realize they only have to run as fast as needed.

Runner's block

Article Abstract:

A runner decided that it is his mind that tried to force him to run on days when he just does not want to. His body may be tired and need a break, although his mind is forcing the issue. Discipline and consistency is important, but paralyzing runner's block makes him listen to his body.
