I really hate to simply post up links two days in a row, but this race report just popped up on one of the ultrarunning email lists of which I am a member. It Jim Shapiro's write-up of a 24-hour race he ran in England and is in a 1979 issue of Sports Illustrated. If you think that any race report I've ever written is of any value, this one puts everything I've ever penned to shame. It takes a while to read, but for those of you with any ultrarunning aspirations, Shapiro captures the internal, external, and all-encompasing struggle of the effort well enough to thoroughly warrant the time invested. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/vault/article/magazine/MAG1123639/1/index.htm
