Summer Sanders Quotes

They Don’t Care About Us’ by Michael Jackson - This song makes me want to dance, and I fell in love with it watching ‘This Is It’ with my kids Picture Quote #1

A lot of my struggles with nutrition date back to my swimming days. I was a super-skinny young girl who would go through hours of intense training. Afterward, I’d be famished, but I had a two-hour trip home before dinner. When I did my hardest workouts, I often ate less; I was too tired to think about food Picture Quote #1

We try to live by the secret of sevens. A friend, who has been married for over 40 years, told us about this magic. Make and keep a date every seven days, take a night away alone, for yourself, every seven weeks, and schedule an adult-only vacation every seven months Picture Quote #1

The kids know what I’m doing when I exercise, and that’s powerful. So don’t just tell your kids to go play outside. Take a moment off your computer, put on your tennis shoes, hop outside and help them start their game and run off some energy Picture Quote #1

With my son, falling off his bike is usually what makes him upset, so a hug goes a long way. But girls are more complicated; my daughter will get bummed out because her friend hurt her feelings. In that case, we’ll talk about it. I’ll tell her that she’s a great friend, and that she needs to talk to her friends about it Picture Quote #1

I’m not the athlete I was when I was training for the Olympics in 92 or when I was working out every single day. I have to live in moderation: I work out three or four days a week, and I smile while I’m working out - I really do enjoy it. I work out with my girlfriends and make it a social competition Picture Quote #1

I worked at this place called Water World; it was a waterslide park. My brother and my dad framed my first paycheck from this place - which was for $0.00 dollars - because I didn’t even make enough to cover the cost of my uniform! Picture Quote #1

The things you learn from sports - setting goals, being part of a team, confidence - that’s invaluable. It’s not about trophies and ribbons. It’s about being on time for practice, accepting challenges and being fearful of the elements Picture Quote #1

I love KIND bars. My favorites are coconut and almond and the dark chocolate and sea salt because staying fueled helps keep me from getting sick or injured. Bananas have also made a great comeback in my life. My kids eat them all the time on the go, which has inspired my go-to pre-run morning meal of peanut butter and banana on toast Picture Quote #1

Here’s what I’ve learned about eating healthy when you’re busy: It’s all about preparation. Make your snacks on Sunday, and you will be good to go until Thursday or so Picture Quote #1

Boston is the cream of the crop of the marathon world. It has such history that you feel such honor just being a part of it. All the other races have pacers to get you to a Boston qualifying time Picture Quote #1

I’m really conscious of the amount of food I eat, but I don’t deny myself anything. For example, I have a really big sweet tooth. At the end of the night, if I’m craving ice cream, I might not have the bowl that I would have when I was a kid, but I’ll put a couple of scoops in a coffee mug, and I’ll eat it slowly, and I enjoy every moment of it Picture Quote #1

You can’t go wrong with some nuts. The key word is ‘some.’ Eat them one at a time, not by the handful Picture Quote #1

There is nothing in this world that I love more than my family. To be able to share the joy of running with them at the Runner’s World Half Marathon and Running Festival where we can all participate together is as close as you can get to a perfect weekend Picture Quote #1

It’s not really about the competition. Your biggest challenge in a race is yourself. You’re often racing against time. You’re frequently running everything through your mind. You’re always competing against preconceived ideas. It’s not really the person next to you that you worry about Picture Quote #1

A great way to get all the right nutrients is to make a colorful plate - mix of good vegetables, carbohydrates, and protein. If you notice all your vegetables are green, change it up and add another color for a variety of benefits in one meal Picture Quote #1

When I was training for the Olympics, I didn’t eat the way I should have. I missed out on much-needed protein and opted for every easy carb Picture Quote #1

I love to run, but training can be hard, especially with a family and a crazy travel schedule. I often do sprints with my kids, where they bike and I run along side them so we can ‘race’ each other for a quarter-mile or shorter repeats Picture Quote #1

I grew up in northern California, where it was consistently in the hundreds in the summertime. My dad didn’t think he should have to turn on the air conditioning when we had a swimming pool in our backyard; it was our built-in air conditioner Picture Quote #1

When I was younger, I would eat everything Picture Quote #1

Indoor pools just don’t seem as inviting to me Picture Quote #1

Preparing mentally takes more out of you than the physical aspect of it Picture Quote #1

The first mile is mental. The rest are all heart Picture Quote #1

At the end of a marathon, it’s going to hurt whether you’re speeding up or slowing down. You may as well push Picture Quote #1

I have so much to learn when it comes to running. I just don’t ever want it to feel like a chore. When I choose to sign up for a race or go out for a run, it’s to make myself feel good, and I almost always do Picture Quote #1

I think some parents fall into a trap, teaching their kids that everything is always perfect and everyone is always a winner Picture Quote #1

Protein is important and hard for me to get in a hurry. We’re busy. I don’t always remember to thaw the chicken for dinner. I always have eggs, and they’re light and satisfying. I never feel stuffed at the end of it Picture Quote #1

To be a champion, I think you have to see the big picture. It’s not about winning and losing; it’s about every day hard work and about thriving on a challenge. It’s about embracing the pain that you’ll experience at the end of a race and not being afraid. I think people think too hard and get afraid of a certain challenge Picture Quote #1

It’s hard to go out and practice every single day, and you get really tired. But you have to believe in yourself Picture Quote #1

Don’t just tell your kids to be active and to get outside and play. Lead by example Picture Quote #1
