So, I got to spend ten days on vacation at the beach. It was amazing to just wake up and know that there was nothing on the agenda but to hang out with some of my most favorite people. I ran and relaxed and read and swam a little...bliss!
I had just finished reading Born to Run which was oh so inspiring. I don't know who wouldn't be inspired to run after reading that book. The story is so touching. Then out on the beach this week I read Ultramarathon Man another inspiring read. That man is AMAZING. The things that he has been able to make he body do are incredible.
The disappointing part is... reading about all of these amazing athletes that are so passionate about running does not in fact make me an amazing endurance runner. It has improved my attitude and gotten me excited about my running, but the actual endurance--does not just change at the close of a chapter, darn. I guess I've got to keep logging the miles in my sneaks.
