Baristing

Ultrarunning is, above all, a sport of endurance. Endurance not just in the sporting sense but in the human sense. It is a sport built primarily around the ability to accept pain. Running 100 miles hurts. It hurts and it hurts and it hurts, and then there comes a point where it simply cannot hurt anymore. And if you can live in that space, then you can go on. The race has thrown everything it has at you, and you have survived. All that is left is to get to the end.
