I knew I had to keep going. Stopping wouldn’t bring me closer to the finish line, and it wouldn’t help me. So I kept running. Every stride was a struggle.
At 33k, my colleague was there again, cheering me on.
I focused on the moment, on getting to the next distance marker. The mental training from so many runs paid off. “Your pain is no credential here”; staying mindfully in control and getting through was what mattered.
