I say that to myself all the time. “This is who I am, this is what I do.” Ammon is a smart man. You’ve got this!

Glad it didn't come across as self-serving. Runners know.

I really enjoy your writing, Paul. Much like running when things are going well, it just flows. I run, but certainly not like you do 🙂. Good luck with the race in two weeks!

Thanks, Chris. Always remember the first mantra of Running, Probably: If you run, you're a runner. No distinctions or equivocations. We're all doing this together.
