Glancing down at my watch, the vibration confirmed mile 91 complete. Nine miles might seem like a technicality in a 100-mile race, but that final stretch will test your toughness, and the mental gymnastics were in full swing in my head.
There will be pain. Get right with that and running 52 miles isn’t that bad. I’m not saying its good either, but I guarantee it will be an adventure you never forget. You will leave saying, “I’m never going to do that again” or find yourself Googling races when you are back at work.
