Don’t let fear decide your future.
In the midst of an ordinary training day, I try to remind myself that I am preparing for the extraordinary.
I love the fact that not many people can say ‘Oh, I went out and ran 20 miles today.’ I love how much dedication it takes and how much you learn a lot about yourself, your physical and mental limits. There’s just something about it.
