Another Passion
One of the only U of Mich traditions I approve of. And I can't believe I never did it. I didn't even go watch. I am ashamed.

I will consider obessor hardcore when he hits 400 or more miles this month. Dude, Mr. obsessor, seriously, you are running a bunch! Is there a point? Okay, you are reaching for some APEX! What are you eating to fuel all these runs? Did you have one massive Christmas Feast!
I'm only 40 minutes from Ann Arbor.

wha'd she look like? It could be totally necessary. No, Hardcore is not how you dress. Hardcore is 140 to 180 mpw with 3 to 5 hard workouts a week. And getting outside no matter the weather. Or running on the dreadmill in the basement, staring at the wall for 2 hours a day every day. Hardcore is giving up favorite foods, drink, comfort, society, and sanity in the singular pursuit of some apex that may or may not be attainable.
You should run it. Give us a good race report. With pictures.
