my training lately has centered around time goals. slowly shaving seconds off of miles takes hard work and dedication. it isn't enough to just go out and put in your miles. you have to commit yourself to running harder, faster, and approaching, even surpassing, your thresholds of pain. one thought has consistently been repeating itself in my head during the endless footfalls of my runs:
in the stratified, thinly layered air and altitude of pain, it is a more mental than physical game. you must neatly, quickly, and efficiently dispense of the thought of pain and suffering stopping, slowing, or altering your pace. pain is but a natural consequence of the elasticity of the human form.
happy running.
