“Running fast requires conditioning your body, absorbing proper mechanics to the point where they’re second nature, and then forgetting the details and letting it rip. It may sound funny to someone who hasn’t been there, but the more you can let go, the faster you can go. Look at films of Mohammad Ali in his prime and you’ll see how he had that little wrist flick on the end of his jab; if he had to think about doing that, he couldn’t have done it. People have things inside them they don’t know about until it comes out. When somebody asks me how fast a human being can run, I tell them that however fast they think it is, it’ll be faster.” -John Smith, UCLA track coach
