Vor den weiteren Links jetzt doch etwas ganz anderes:

>From Lisa Butler (US) to the "Ultralist" 10th Sept. 2003

I run,
lean and long,
with deliberate joyful footfalls
in the wild woods.
 
I run,
to deliver me from the ordinary;
into the waiting arms of aspens and cedars,
into the dawn and sunstreaked clouds,
from the dirt to the air and back to the dirt again.
 
I run,
for my life;
through my past,
and into my future.
 
Light and dark,
sun and snow,
wind and rain,
I run.
I live.

Weitere Links - das hat zunächst einmal nichts mit "best of the rest" zu tun. Erstmal sind das hier einfach alle Links zum Thema Ultramarathon, die ich sonst noch nirgendwo untergebracht habe, sei es aus Ideenlosigkeit, Zeitmangel oder sonstewas.
