As I read this, I’m sitting at the 55-mile aid station of a hundred-mile race, patiently waiting for my buddy to get here (I’m pacing him through the overnight). Thank you for giving me something pertinent (and fairly profound) to think about during the next many hours.

Also… Martin Eden!! I heartily second your recommendation (I wasn’t sure anyone else even knew about this book, and it’s so good.)

"As you can tell, while my goals for the race were modest, my expectations were quite high." Very powerful line, and very relatable. Thank you for sharing this series!
