The pain that hurts the worse is the imagined pain. One of the most difficult arts of racing is learning to ignore the imagined pain and just live with the present pain (which is always bearable.) - Jeff

Hilenie. Hope you’re getting better and back into shape but, at a certain point that’s hard for the brain to accept until long after it happens, if ever, the younger days never come again. However, reminiscing about them just makes 'em get better and better.,.Although my last three races have all fizzled before their respective target goals, nobody fails in something like next week’s 12-hour run as they just publish everyone’s total miles, not the times..3/22 tetsujin - Green Lake Dizzy Daze 12-hour (thongs)3/23 tetsujin - Mercer Island Half Mary (barefoot)
If I can walk for all 12 hours on Saturday, it will be better than all of last year’s zilched-out training for the Pigtails Challenges in May. We'll see if Sunday's planned half mary cool-down works out.

Life is a headlong rush into the unknown. We can hunker down and hope nothing hits us or we can stand tall, lean into the wind and say, "Bring it on, darlin', and don't be stingy with the jalapenos."
Please Add:

I thought about doing the full like Holly, but that might be biting off more than I can chew.
