"The individual nature of running appealed to me. You start at the same place with 

your fellow runners. You all finish at the same place. How you do is largely up to

you. If you win, you congratulate yourself. If you lose, you evaluate how

to improve. You can't make excuses like "he didn't pass me the ball" or 

"the coach didn't put me in." It's on you. That's the beauty of the sport.
