Perimeter meaning the 6 mile patrol road inside
the fence of the military installation on which I work, where some half a dozen
of us comprise a pool of running “talent” and strive to show up for a noontime
run a couple times a week if we can escape our desks. We share a lot and these
guys are one of the core pillars of my sanity.
Just exchanged some email with my retired running buddy, Steve. I see him a couple times a year when all of us get together for a memorial run to the good old days.
I guess I blew him away once when I was talking about some Ultra training run or another. The distances we run, once incredible to imagine, have become routine. It's all a matter of training.
Here's what he just wrote:
And Gary,,,,,,the best Gary
story I tell to my other workout bud's.....when we would say goin out for a
long run this weekend, 7-10 mile....you said "gonna go out for 6.....hours, that is"......you are incredible......
