“Get going.  Get up and walk if you have to, but finish the damned race.”

– Ron Hill, British Distance Runner, to Jerome Drayton, Canadian Distance Runner

I’m writing this post early as a I am likely asleep right now after running my first full marathon.  Hopefully I didn’t need Ron Hill’s advice here, but I think it provides relevant advice to all of us. It doesn’t matter how beat down we are, the most important thing is to get ourselves up and over the finish line.
