THINGS I'VE LEARNED FROM RUNNING

RUNNING HAS A LOT OF CROSSOVER WITH CYCLING. Legs, lungs. Sprinting, enduring. Shoes, shorts. Winners, losers. And, of course...

... all runners eventually come to the bike.

They just don't know it.

But, there's something a lot of cyclists don't know and that is that running books are by and large much better reading than books on racing bikes.

Better stories.
Better insights.
Better performance data.

Maybe it's because more people run?

The latest find is by the U.S.'s half-marathon record holder, who also held the U.S. marathon record. His name is Ryan Hall...

... and his younger brother is a local slayer on mountain bikes.

The book is called, Run The Mile You're In.

Here are a few takeaways:

Once we cease to be impressed by the size of our challenges, our ability to overcome them grows exponentially.
If we want to change our results, we've got to change our hearts.
The way to become mentally tough is to believe you are mentally tough

If you're into the spiritual side of endurance racing you'll enjoy this book.

Running is also great cross training, and the SuperTech T is perfect for that.
