Good Weekend

Endure

Walked 17 miles with 1.5 miles or so of running sprinkled in this weekend. This was way more than I could have hoped for. Saw Yiannis Kourous DVD Forever Running. Very inspiring DVD. This guy is the most hardcore UltraRunner I have ever seen and his descriptions of how success comes from the mind were amazing. It was surreal watching him on his porch that overlooks a graveyard. He considers that view inspiring as were all going to die and he seeing the gravestones gets him out of bed and running. Very intense. Watching this DVD added 6 miles to my day today. "The verb ‘endure’ is not a physical verb, it's a spiritual one. Endure means to withstand…you must be patient and then do solid training. Without patience, you will never conquer endurance." Yiannis Kouros
