The rule of thirds is that when you're chasing a dream or doing anything hard, you're supposed to feel good a third of the time, OK a third of the time and crappy a third of the time. If you're within this ratio, then the bad days aren't bad. They just mean you're chasing a dream.
I think we're wired to do hard things. And that's kind of perverse, but you know, the marathon has become one of the great bucket list items. I think people get something real out of pushing limits they didn't know that they had.
