athletes certainly novel pushing races running seeking ways
Many athletes are seeking new and novel ways of pushing their limits, and the challenge of running back-to-back races is certainly one way to test the boundaries.
running self breaking-down
If you just go out there and run 100 miles, it breaks down a lot of barriers in terms of self-imposed limitations.
running country cells
I run with a credit card and a cell phone, so when there is not a 7-Eleven around, like some of the country roads out there, I can get him to deliver a pizza to me. And I kind of give them a coordinate, a corner.
running thinking might
Runners are competitive folks. I think some might feel slighted they haven't got more recognition. I think they have a point. In running, you won't necessarily get noticed just for turning in good performances.
running mean self
If someone had said to me before I started doing this that a human being is capable of running 100 miles nonstop, I would have just said: 'No way. I mean, how?' If you just go out there and run 100 miles, it breaks down a lot of barriers in terms of self-imposed limitations.
running air ordinary
I run to breathe the fresh air. I run to explore. I run to escape the ordinary.
running training marathon
I do a lot of marathons as training runs. If I'm somewhere and there's a marathon, I'll sign up and just go run it.
running impact pedals
I have an ElliptiGO. It's a standup bicycle. You don't pedal; you stride on it. It allows me to have the same striding motion as running without the impact.
running rocks climbing
I love surfing, rock climbing, cycling - all that stuff. But it's just amazing that I can inspire people with my running. It's humbling, really.
running use novel
I love to run and I have some tips to keep it fresh and novel. I rarely use the same route twice. That keeps things new.
running race hydration
Running back-to-back races requires a certain tactical prudence. Going too hard in any one race might jeopardize your performance in another. Maintaining proper hydration and caloric equilibrium also becomes increasingly critical.
running want take-me
I run because it always takes me where I want to go.
running risk grows
You cannot grow and expand your capabilities without running the risk of failure.
running simple race
Running is a simple, primitive act, and therein lays its power. For it is one of the few commonalities left between us as a human race.
