Hill-training Florida-style! ... The Miami skyline, 6am., a bridge, 200 runners doing their workout together. One of them dragging a large tire. I had a chat with him -the running community here not only having a lot of top runners but also a strong social side. Why he drags a tire? His laugh and huge smile says it all! Why do we do ultra-running? Because we want to complete races? Win races? Keep healthy? Perhaps, but the best answer I think a personality like Toussaint Thompson represent: Because its difficult :-) If ultra-running was easy wed probably do something else. Few things capture the spirit of ultra-running like this guy smiling broadly while he slowly fights his way to the top of the bridge... Only to turn around and meticulously pull it back down again. (the greek mythological figure of Sisyphos would have been proud of such a determination!)
