This is why I run ultra marathons, often in the mountains in incredibly bad weather. Well I should rephrase this, I run the first 20-40 miles, the rest is a hike, until the last ten of so miles which are a zombie shuffle. The thing is though, I spend hours just on my own (most of the time), with only my own wits to keep me going and entertained. I also get to side up real close to nature at it's rawest.
