i run ultra distance trails *alone.* for me running is a personal, meditative state. i understand challenging yourself to your limits but i cant understand comparing yourself to everyone else. focusing on times leads to problems like overtraining and eating disorders. my goals are always be safe, have fun, and finish the run. im not too concerned about the times altho i chart them afterwards for fun. if you really want to challenge yourself, running a 4hr marathon is ok, but try doing it alone on a muddy, snowy hiking trail with 5k feet elevation gain and multiple creek crossings in the dark during a storm with 10 degree F and 30 mile wind. the point is it doesnt matter what time you run, you either finish or you dont
