Rules of Ultrarunning, Rule #1

"Don't get high on your own supply." Humility may be an ultrarunner's best asset. My new motto: be humble. Too often, ultrarunners get big heads. This is no surprise; it is a wonderful feeling to finish a 50 or 100-miler. But, don't get too cocky. There is always someone better, faster, stronger. And there is always more to learn about the sport.
