Run Until it Stops Hurting

Hi! I'm a 17 year old track and cross country runner at a boarding school. This blog is about 95% running/fitness and the other 5% is random stuff. You can read more on my about me page if you want to.

I have to wake up in about 4 hours to go to the airport for my trip to Ecuador, but instead of sleeping I keep rechecking to make sure I’ve packed everything. I need to just calm down and sleep.

a-pure-guts-race: your-personal-best: this is my laptop background. so even when i’m doing work i have a reminder for why i run. Lesson of the day, children: give it your absolute all while you can. Looking back on life later, you never want to have to wonder what would’ve happened if you had worked a little harder when it counted.

"You pretended the snooze button didn’t exist. You dragged your butt out of bed while others slept. While others ate their pancakes. You had a feast of protein, glucose, and electrolytes. You double-knotted. You left the porch light on and locked the door behind you. You ran. 5Ks, 10Ks, 26.2 miles. Some days more, some days less. You rewarded a long run with a short run. And a short run with a long run. Rain tried to slow you. Sun tried to microwave you. Snow made you feel like a warrior. You cramped. You bonked. You paid no mind to comfort. On weekends. On holidays. You made excuses to keep going. Questioned yourself. Played mind games. Put your heart before your knees. Listened to your breathing. Sweat sunscreen into your eyes. Worked on your farmer’s tan. You hit the wall. You went through it. You decided to be a man about it. You decided to be a woman about it. Finished what you started. Proved what you were made of. Just keep putting mile after mile on your internal odometer."

GREAT WALL OOF CHINA MARATHON 5,164 steps into history - 18 May 2013

I would be so pissed to have to do a STAIR workout in addition to a 20 mile run to train for this thing.

the awesome thing is that to get out of there you have to keep going

I was struggling just casually walking up this

Future to do list. Marathon of painnnnn. Bragging rights foreverrrrrr.

I would love to do this.
