Some seek the comfort of their therapist's office, other head to the corner pub and dive into a pint, but I chose running as my therapy.

More quotes by Dean Karnazes
I run because it always takes me where I want to go.
Dean Karnazes
I eat nothing that's processed or refined - no high-fructose corn syrup, no sugar, no trans-fats. I eat a lot of fish and monounsaturated fats from olives, olive oil and nuts. A lot of organic, fresh fruits and vegetables. No bread. No gluten. No wheat. No rice.
Dean Karnazes
Want a strong, solid relationship that is willing to go the distance? Get to know your running shoes.
Dean Karnazes
If you keep chasing your dreams, one day you'll catch them.
Dean Karnazes
Run when you can, walk if you have to, crawl if you must just never give up.
Dean Karnazes
Toeing the starting line of a marathon, regardless of the language you speak, the God you worship or the color of your skin, we all stand as equal. Perhaps the world would be a better place if more people ran.
Dean Karnazes
Runners are competitive folks. I think some might feel slighted they haven't got more recognition. I think they have a point. In running, you won't necessarily get noticed just for turning in good performances.
Dean Karnazes
Go out hard and finish harder.
Dean Karnazes
I do a lot of marathons as training runs. If I'm somewhere and there's a marathon, I'll sign up and just go run it.
Dean Karnazes
I love surfing, rock climbing, cycling - all that stuff. But it's just amazing that I can inspire people with my running. It's humbling, really.
Dean Karnazes
The human body is capable of amazing physical deeds. If we could just free ourselves from our perceived limitations and tap into our internal fire, the possibilities are endless.
Dean Karnazes
I run with a credit card and a cell phone, so when there is not a 7-Eleven around, like some of the country roads out there, I can get him to deliver a pizza to me. And I kind of give them a coordinate, a corner.
Dean Karnazes
I love to run and I have some tips to keep it fresh and novel. I rarely use the same route twice. That keeps things new.
Dean Karnazes
Listen to everyone, follow no one.
Dean Karnazes
I never feel more alive than when I'm in great pain, struggling against insurmountable odds and untold adversity. Hardship? Suffering? Bring it!
Dean Karnazes
How to run an ultramarathon ? Puff out your chest, put one foot in front of the other, and don't stop till you cross the finish line.
Dean Karnazes
Endurance running was my passion, my ride. So here, I was in the driver's seat, running for two days straight pushing the mental and physical limits striving to be better, to go farther, to give more.
Dean Karnazes
A lot of ultramarathoners are soloists. They're single and live lives off the grid.
Dean Karnazes
Sure I'm cut but not for the sake of vanity.
Dean Karnazes
Somewhere along the line we seem to have confused comfort with happiness.
