I'd always wanted to run a marathon, and now I was thinking about it even more.

Refiners are exhausted, like runners in mid-marathon. They've been pushing very hard since last year. As a practical matter, these things have limits. If you push too hard, capacity drops.

It's pretty intense. It's not like running a marathon, but it is a mental strain.

I remember thinking that I never wanted to be one of those moms.

We played rotten. We played like we were finishing a marathon. I think (Clear Creek) could have set down on defense and we still wouldn't have scored.

People don’t like to think, if one thinks, one must reach conclusions. Conclusions are not always pleasant.
