The Course

I took the above quote from the book “Born to Run” by Christopher McDougall. Ken Chlouber is the founder of the Leadville Trail 100 across the Colorado Rocky Mountains. Its an interesting sentiment that can be taken in different ways.

I think “making friends with pain” is about embracing the difficult things in life and persevering through them.

To the left is the map of the 50.43 mile course that I will be running on October 9, 2010.
