If you have been in the sport of ultrarunning for a while, you may have experienced a similar kind of training lull. Running aside, you may have experienced this type of lull in some other area of life - struggling to complete work projects, finish schooling, continue relationships, or otherwise.
I have run a lot this past year, consistently and healthily, but I have not run far. And, while I remember what it takes - in terms of habits of attention and self-governance - to complete long training runs, it will take a while before my legs catch up. I need to practice running far, repeatedly, to be able to do so well. I need to grow in perseverance.
