24 Hour Race?
I'm very much considering a 24 hour run this June. It's a relay race but I would do a solo effort, along with some friends to keep me company. I like the thought of plunging the depth of not just the body but the mind and soul as well that seems unique to 24 hours on a track. Perhaps it's the circular nature of the course that brigs a lack of distraction that is singular to a track. The trail and road bring plenty of challenges but also allows the mind to runner to beautiful and interesting sites and sounds. On the track - eventually - it's just the runner and the track. And eventually just the runner as the two merge into continuous motion. I'm not sure if I'm physically ready for this - my training has been mainly for distance of 50 miles and less. But I'm sure I'm up for 12 plus hours and a distance PR so I'm giving it serious consideration.
Stay tuned!
