This is a video taken prior to the Boston Marathon of Todd Williams speaking at a BAA/adidas Training Run.  Although he is speaking to a group of runners preparing for the Marathon, his words transcend across all distances, sports and races.  All high school kids and college athletes should listen to this clip.  It is very motivational and uplifting.  I apologies for the shaky camera work; I had to shoot it without a tripod. 

For those of you who don’t know who Todd is, he is a two time Olympian at 10,000m and has a 5K PR of 13:19…he was also 9^th at World Cross in the early 90’s when there was only one race.
