"The music of a marathon is a powerful strain, one of those tunes of
glory. It asks us to forsake pleasures, to discipline the body, to find
courage, to renew faith and to become one's own person, utterly and
completely."

Posting running moticational quotes here is a great help! Here's an addition:
"You have to wonder at times what you're doing out there. Over the years, I've given myself a thousand reasons to keep running, but it always comes back to where it started. It comes down to self-satisfaction and a sense of achievement."
- Steve Prefontaine

Man vs Horse
In mid-June 2004, marathon runner Huw Lobb became the first human being ever to win the annual Man vs Horse race at Llanwrtyd Wells in Wales. (He completed the 22-mile cross-country course in 2:05:19, 12 minutes ahead of the nearest horse).
Lobb was later asked by the press what he planned to do with the £25,000 prize. His reply? "Buy myself some decent training shoes."
