i tend to forget 100km races never get easier. i tend to forget how much the training sucks. i tend to forget even though it's something i've done, each time, it will hurt like hell. to improve on my time, i have to push myself every bit as hard as i did as in my first time.
the physical pain is here to stay, no doubt. no matter how much faster i get, to improve, i will need to cause myself greater pain.
the only thing standing between perseverance and collapse is our mental strength. so ethereal and insubstantial, yet stronger than any muscle in our body.
