“It’s key to be running three-plus days per week when #training for a long-distance race”
Long Runs Are Key to #Endurance Gains, But Here’s Why You Need More Weekly Mileage
Turns out the rest of the week is where you make key gains.

“In #running, unlike in team #sports, there are no substitutes for exhausted players. Nor are there machines to assist an aching body, as there are in #cycling, or pauses built into the game. A #runner must stay in constant motion, pushing her body to #run farther than the average person can fathom”
“The successful distance #runner is thus a paradox: a person blessed with godlike #endurance and a baffling insensitivity to pain, who nonetheless … is just like us” https://newrepublic.com/article/185452/paradox-distance-runner-women-books
I like this poem. It feels (at least to me) resonant with an essay I wrote once called "What is Love?" In it, I take the probably-unusual position that love is about* hysteresis (no relation to hysteria, as the essay explains). Not all love is glamorous.

* Of course, there are many kinds of love and many aspects of it, but I think this one is neglected and needed some TLC. :)

Season 4 Episode 9 "Ironman Buchannon"
~740km east of Mackay, Queensland, 90km west of Tropical Cyclone Alfred. Sure hope he's safe.
"He is travelling solo on the rowing boat from... [San Diego] Californian... to Brisbane and was battling winds of 80km/h and heavy seas when he called for help, the Australian Maritime Safety Authority (Amsa) said.
A Cairns-based Challenger jet didn’t spot the vessel on Saturday but managed to make contact with Mockus, who said he was tired. "

Sometimes the best part of cycling is being done with the day's ride. Other times, the best part is the scenery, the people you ride with and the physical high. I miss it so much. #cycling #endurance
What do you do during loooong endurance exercises such as 2-3 hour long indoor rides 
?
I watch movie series (the same ones again and again 
) and documenteries if I'm doing low effort rides.
Walking outside 1+ hours I listen to work listen-only meetings or podcasts and sometimes TED talks, too.

When you start doubting yourself, remember how far you have come. Remember everything you have faced, all the battles you have won, and all the fears you overcame.
