We present a summary of top quark physics results from Run 1 at
CDF using the Run 1 data sample of 106 pb-1. In addition to the precursory
measurements of the top quark mass and tt-bar cross section, we have
performed a number of other analyses which test the consistency of the
tt-bar data sample with the sample model (SM). Deviations from SM
expectations could provide hints for new physics. We find that the data are
consistent with the SM. While the Run 1 data are statistically limited, we
have shown that the systematic uncertainties are under control and thus have
laid the groundwork for higher precision tests of the SM in Run 2. This
report describes the Run 1 top quark analyses and expectations and prospects
for top quark measurements in Run 2.
