WHEN YOU'RE AN ENDURANCE ATHLETE, when you really know how to dig, scrape and claw... you know truth when you see it.
And, I love this quote from Molly Seidel:
I wasn’t paying attention to the miles or pace and just going off feel and when we made our move I just wanted to keep running the pace I felt good at.
That is truth.
It's why a lot times I'll toss the ol' computer in my back pocket when racing.
And leave it there.
Sure, I like looking at the data when it's all done... but some formats I find it too distracting...
... like any event under 2ish hours.
Who is Molly Seidel?... oh, just the first person who ever ran a marathon and at the same time qualified for the Olympics.
THE OLYMPICS!
That's right...
... just going off feel...
... 'cause it felt good.
Dawgawn... I love that, gotta say it again:
I wasn’t paying attention to the miles or pace and just going off feel.
Going off feel, isn't that the be feeling?
Ever?
I know what you're thinking... musta been a long time ago, before the "modern age".
Nope.
It was Saturday.
2hours27minutes31second.
... just going off feel.
There's another kind of feeling, it's feeling of feedback I get through my hands.
Personally, I prefer very thin gloves.
Real leather.
No padding.
Immense ventilation.
Full fingers.

Yes, I know we should charge a lot more for these. But, I guess I just want as many people to try them as possible.
