"It is a paradoxical but profoundly true and important principle of life that the most likely way to reach a goal is to be aiming not at that goal itself but at some more ambitious goal beyond it." - Arnold Toynbee As an interesting side note, I just noticed after showering off that a blood blister that I developed during the Pinhoti 100 (exactly 1 month ago today) just popped.

You'd think that I'd get my lazy rear end out to run on the day on which I sign up for a new marathon, but no... (By the way, if anyone's interested, there are still plenty of spots available at the Mississippi Blues Marathon...)
