I've got a fever...
but then I hit the wall. I literally lost control of my arms and legs and kept myself up basically by will alone.
On your deathbed, you won't wish that you'd spent more time at the office. But you will wish that you'd spent more time running. Because if you had, you wouldn't be on your deathbed.

Why is it sideways?
I knew a guy who gave 103% once, but he was hopped on cough medicine and peyote. Also, he died when his previously undiagnosed brain cloud collapsed. Always get checked for brain clouds before going past 100%. It's dangerous.
Took me a good three months of easy running to rebuild my base.
Was it exactly three months? Was it ONLY easy running?

Dude, you just gave me a wicked flashback of my 800m PR. I have never felt more wobbly than the last 100m of that relay leg.
I've been thinking about these questions for a long time and wonder if anyone has any input: If you give a 100% effort in a race what happens at the 101% mark?

Shouldn't have run the first lap in 56 - WAY beyond my 800m ability.
Same thing here. I basically ended up as the rabbit - three people passed me in that last 100m. Shouldn't have run the first lab in 56 - WAY beyond my 800m ability.
