There was a local 6hr race around a 500 meter loop recently. Two members of my running group participated Theresa managing a great performance of just over 60k and Andrew was in the winning team.
I first of all choked on the thought of running such a distance then I remembered that I ran a 80k race back in my formative years. It was held around a 5klm circuit and started at 1am.
I guess it is a matter of "If the mind is willing the body will often follow".
