Gina Greenlee
“Opportunity to suspend disbelief is often why we watch movies. The stories and images touch us and shift perspectives in ways we may not allow in our daily lives. As readily as you check your “this isn’t real” attitude at the ticket counter – when transformers are defending earth against aliens and 21st century vampires frolic by daylight – on the big screen of your heart and mind train for, run and celebrate finishing your first marathon.”
Gina Greenlee, The Whole Person Guide to Your First Marathon: A Mind Body Spirit Companion

“All discomfort is not equal. Learning to listen will help you distinguish among effort, fatigue and pain. To what degree, under what conditions and over what period of time your body experiences these sensations will determine how you respond.”
Gina Greenlee, The Whole Person Guide to Your First Marathon: A Mind Body Spirit Companion
