Ultra Marathon

As you may know from my posts, I’ve been training for a half-marathon, while my wife is training for a full marathon.  We even have pictures of our experience.

I came across this video yesterday about a guy who runs Ultra Marathons.  What is an ultra marathon?  Pain!  It’s like a million miles, or something.  Okay, not really, but it’s still way beyond human ability.  There are 40-mile ultras and 100-mile ultras.  This video is about a guy who does 150-mile ultra marathons.  Very inspiring story!

In the video, he says one thing that really stands, one thing that all of us can take to heart, “You have to see yourself doing it. Unless you can see yourself doing it, you’ll never achieve it.”
