Proud, but bleeding – Post Sri Lanka Thoughts

I’m currently sitting in a small courtyard, within Galle Fort Sri Lanka. I have a fresh pineapple juice, a perfectly cooked tuna steak. To my side is my notebook and I’m penning my thoughts 3 days following the DNF at Ultra X Sri Lanka. This race was the dream race; it was always the goal.…
