I started running a few years back in order to lose weight. Combined with changes in my diet I succeeded in losing 50lbs! I continued to run so I could eat what I want to eat, and to increase my milage to see how far I could push myself. Could I run a marathon? Yes. Could I improve on my time? Yes. Could I run even farther? Yes. Can I finish a 100-mile ultra-marathon? We’ll see.
So why do I run so much?
- Because I like to eat;
- because I want to push myself and discover my limits;
- because I enjoy it.
