Brave: What was the bravest thing you did in 2013?
The bravest thing I did this year was toeing the line of the Laurel Highlands 70 Miler. I didn't think I would be able to finish, having struggled all Spring with my race nutrition and resulting cramping.
Starting a race might not sound all that brave, but another failure would have crushed my running heart. There was a lot riding on this race.

ReplyDeleteI so hear you, Kirstin! Congrats on being brave. It is tough to go out on an ultra when you have some setbacks because you know how hard it is when everything is going GREAT. I still get totally freaked out before every race, something I didn't experience until I had failed several times. Good job for staying strong!
