"It doesn't have to be fun to be fun"
"We don't make sacrifices. If we truly love this sport and we have these goals and dreams in the sport, the classroom, or in life, they're not sacrifices. They're choices that we make to fulfill these goals and dreams."
-Deena Kastor
"To give anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift"
-Steve Prefontaine
Feeling pretty relaxed - I’m packed for the Chicago Lakefront Ultra, and am taking off for my train shortly. Will update blog via twitter during the race, if possible.
I’m amused to have discovered that if I finish the 50M before the cut-off, I’ll be qualified for Western States. Not that I’m planning on trying to go next year, mind you….
