Great stuff, Charlie. I read that Z2 part in FINDING ULTRA too, but I never did quite understand it. Your explanation broke through my thick skull. Proud of you, my friend. That first 100 km when you bonked with prove your greatest ally over the long haul. God bless you!
Thank you, Steve! You're absolutely right about lessons from a good bonking. There's no doubt in my mind that calling that 100K over safety lead me to debrief in a way that I wouldn't have if it had all been smooth sailing.
FINDING ULTRA is a treasure for training and life. I also remember craving smoothies as I read the recipes he describes.
Stay cool Charlie.
And drink lots of water!
