running was and still is a passion of mine. i ran in HS and college with PR's of: 30.54 10k, 14:31 5k, 9:01 3200, 9:11 indoor 2 mile, 4:24 indoor mile.
but those days are long gone. i'm 39 now and have had an ultra marathon on my mind a lot recently. i think i will give it a go next year.
keep up the hard work, listen to your coach and have faith. but most importantly, enjoy it.
