Why?

...because anyone can run an ultramarathon. You do not need to be crazy (although it helps!) or a genetic anomaly.

If you can run a 5k, you can run a half marathon. If you can run a half marathon, you can run a marathon. And if you can run a marathon, you can run an ultramarathon.

This is my journey as I start from scratch following an injury with a couch to 5k training program up through a 100 mile race.

In the Meantime

So I have taken a bit of a break from running. Pain-free runs left so much promise only to be dashed by some pain where the cyst is located. Since it happened while running and since it is on my MCL, I decided to not push this one.

In the meantime, I was inspired while watching Top Gear in all of their "ambitious yet rubbish" gloriousness. I will take this pause in running to write about another passion, and hence the following is a list of my top cars.

1. Subaru WRX STI... I do so love my car
2. Fiat 500 Abarth SS... you can keep your mini coopers
3. Ariel Atom... open-wheeled awesomeness
3. Porsche GT3
4. Ferrari 458 Italia... because it sounds so damn pretty and has some power to match
5. Reliant Robin... because it is absolutely ridiculous

And for all you who are screaming what about the American cars:
1. Ford Fiesta... of course, it would be to strip it down and turn it into a proper rally car
2. Ford F-150 SVT Raptor... if I had to pick a truck
