May as well go for broke.

Being stronger and healthier is a fantastic thing and I'm thrilled to hear you're getting so much from running  the relationship between mental and physical preparation or readiness is fascinating, isn't it? I am always interested to hear your take on that - I ponder it often too. My tactic is to try and get myself out the door before I've properly had a chance to think about what I'm about to do and I count to 100 over and over as I run to give ne somerhing to focus on. Not sure how I'd manage on long runs, never done more than 10k (as yet...)  

What is the race you are training for?
