Evelyn Ashford Running Quotations

I can't run forever. I decided to go back to school for my degree, because I know now there's more to life than track.

I always want to be the best and if I can't, I don't want to run.

I am thrilled to be 31, still running and having my daughter watch me even if it is on TV.

I can feel the wind go by when I run. It feels good. It feels fast.

Before me, sprinters retired at 23 or 24. I run because I still like it, I can make a living, and I feel I was born to do it. And because people tell me I can't do it.

When I'm running fast, I don't feel anything, it's effortless, it's like my feet don't even touch the ground, it's like I'm flying.
