Funny to read this – I just did my first-ever race today! Only a 5k, but it’s a start. And there are probably those who think that’s too much to bother with.
To me, as long as you keep in perspective (i.e., you realize there are other important things in life to do and talk about) and don’t injure yourself, you can do whatever you want. My personal trainer did a 24-hour run last weekend – a race where he ran almost 100 miles in 24 hours. Me, I can’t imagine running for 24 hours straight, unless something was chasing me, and even then I’d probably give up! But he didn’t injure himself, and he enjoyed it, so I don’t consider that crazy.
