The Finish Line Effect: Your mind eliminates pain and stress when the end is in sight!

There was actually a moment that I was going up this pretty big hill towards the end. I'm like, there's no way I can run this. My legs are shot, or people around me. But I got a bunch of like voice messages from my family. And so I was listening to some of those. Um, and so that was very encouraging. And then it got to that last little bit and I was like, I'm going to sprint through the rest of this or whatever you want to call it.

It's amazing. You probably got to whatever that is, 39.4, like that last. And all of a sudden, I don't know if you had that feeling where the legs all of a sudden feel good again.
