feel like I won’t get anywhere in running
Running is the one sport where you’re guaranteed to get somewhere. Sure, it’s only 500 meters away. But it sounds like you’d benefit from distance from the crazy.

I find for cross-country and track you really just end up back where you started. If you want to get somewhere, you have to run a 5k. If you really want to go far, marathons are where it's at.

We have this nice 100 mile bike race every year out here

That's like 400 times around the track!

you just unlocked a memory i had tried to forget. broke my leg, the idiot PT guy said before i get back to running to do one of my long workouts around the track. one of my long workouts was 15 miles. I can’t run around tracks anymore after that.
