I could keep up with Peter for 1.2 km and he was passing me but… today something happened! To his surprise, he found me next to him at the other end. To my surprise, he stopped and let me pass. Unbelievable! I am just happy, it finally happened! He took the lead after but not for too long. I still remember my breakthrough with Brent 5 years ago. The young lad provoked me one day saying he would add 1 mile to any distance I’d run with him. We did run few hours that day and he ended limping because of a knee injury and I left with one certainty: I can run for a very long time at a very decent speed!

Long distance swimming and running is a different type of exercise. It relies more on your mental strength than your fitness. You can change the result if you are mentally stronger.
