| 0:00.0 | I truly believe any fit person can run 100 miles, but I don't believe that the reason why they don't is because you can't beat this right here. I think we subconsciously don't want to set ourselves up for failure. We either don't try or we do things that we know we can complete. I have like official 100 mile races. I think I've done five and I think I've finished two. I did Texas in 24. I did east west. I just did it this October, north to south. I'm the only man to cross Texas both ways. Fastest man to do it both ways and the only man to do it both ways. It doesn't cost you anything. You just get off your couch and set a goal and just start. If you want to get into fitness, have someone with you. When you are doing something and you're suffering, when you know that the person next to you is suffering, it changes everything. |
