    This is great stuff. One of my favourite parts of the sport is the stories and how we all try to push ourselves.

    Lesson of the day , it's ok to take a pause, just reset and get back out there! So glad you reset and went onto the super finish and will be back!

    Smart words, every body that does this type of races knows exactly where he is talking about. But getting true it makes that special!

    I love ultra running but suffer often from those mental lows in the race.
    This genuinely helps.

    I'm not sure if I've heard someone else refer to their running career as failing upward before. I've failed upwards from junior high to collegiate to now ultra. Never being the best, often being one of slower ones the higher up I get, but I'm still doing it.
