From overweight to winning Boston?

I've gotten back into more serious running over the last few days (a little less time on the bike and pool I guess)... And man oh man is it hurting... A few days of speedwork and I'm already sore.

Anyway, this morning's Runners World email had this brilliant quote:

"I was too fat. The doctor said I needed to exercise, so I began to run."

-Elijah Lagat, men's winner of the 2000 Boston Marathon

If that's not getting you to run... Nothing is :)
