Mind Over Matter. Ignoring the bonk!

Been doing some interesting reading lately about how in control you mind really is over your body, and that how when you think you're all out of energy, it's probably your mind holding you back to protect you.

I think this will be most interesting to long distance runners, as when I get to the 20-25 mile mark, I am hurting so bad.  I stopped at mile 23 last week.  Eveything hurt, felt like I was going to die.  After reading this article, I hope it will help me push through that wall a little bit!

The central governor theory, pretty interesting!
