Great post with such thoughtful advice. I once did a 50k ultra. Mostly walking in the end. I was in a lot of pain by the end but it very much was one small step at a time, breaking it down into small sections.

Good luck with your course!

That means so much to me—thank you for sharing that! I think poetry has a way of reaching the parts of us that words alone sometimes can’t. I’m really glad it resonates with you, Claudia 💛
