You deplete all the chemicals which normally regulate your mood at different rates. Everything's out of whack. You get great highs and plummeting lows. In ultras I often wear sunglasses so people can't see I'm welling up at nothing at all.
It's also a good sign that you aren't replenishing correctly.
It does and let's be honest there is fuck all support out there on the course. I got 3.56 last year at Stratford and really do think if I did London I could get 3,45.
Some inspirational stuff on the TV yesterday evening watching the London highlights.
Does anyone else feel a bit hollow after running a marathon - emotional even? It's quite a weird feeling. Different to being knackered.
