For those of you following along, I read Born to Run a few weeks ago. This book was awesome and continues to have a strong influence on my running life as of late. Much of the book is about these ultra-marathoners who run this insane, 100 mile race through the Rocky Mountains in Leadville, Colorado. One of the runners featured in this story had the bright idea to do his training for the race on the actual course itself. And what do you know – he ended up setting a new course record that year.
Do you know what I think of that?
