Episode Quotes

• Some days you run, some days you survive, some days the win is just staying alive—the bravest thing is refusing to leave.

• I can do hard things, the road has shown me; crossing the line sets my spirit free—running taught me life is earned day by day.

• It's finish lines, not finished times—the road doesn't care what you'd hoped you'd be, it just asks if you keep moving your feet.

• Heart over ego, our party at the back—the front gets cheers, the clock gets fed, but we get the moments you don't forget.
