I love your comment that bruised egos heal. Digging deep to focus on priorities, and giving your body a break when it needs it so you can have the best shot at achieving your goals sounds pretty damn smart to me. I say it takes a strong runner to realize that, and an even stronger discipline to obey your body. Once again, I am in admiration.(Mary) Shannon Johnstonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07134888944718429616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8926806561408428497.post-41586842700516247042012-01-15T10:41:49.303-05:002012-01-15T10:41:49.303-05:00Annette,

I am not an ultra-marathoner... yet... so reading your post and others that stemmed from your post, truly encouraged me to continue my running and increase my mileage. Did not finish? Are you kidding? 74 miles in 12 hours and you "did not finish"? <br /><br />Yes... you are in an elite group of athletes to be frustrated that you could "only" run 74 miles in 12 hours and than call it quits!<br /><br />Thanks for setting a worthy standard for us mortals who are just starting this process!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04894649679779249698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8926806561408428497.post-35120274873923955302012-01-05T21:19:59.493-05:002012-01-05T21:19:59.493-05:00Finian!

It's a very well-organized race, the only downside being a concrete bridge that gets hard on the legs after a while and frequently hot weather (Minnesota doesn't have snow ALL the time).SteveQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16943650844671498074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8926806561408428497.post-36238040908943004152012-01-02T08:46:44.664-05:002012-01-02T08:46:44.664-05:00When you have a major goal or desire in the near f...When you have a major goal or desire in the near future, then I believe you have to make sound decisions to help you reach that goal.

With no finish line, is it really a DNF? Good luck in 2012.
