Nate Loman is an all-around endurance sports junkie.

Doesn't matter if it's running, swimming, cycling, or some combination of activities, if it's an endurance sport he's up for it!

And not for nothing, but maybe that variety of training helps him excel no matter what discipline (or disciplines) he's participating in at the moment.

How much time and energy do you waste focusing on things that are beyond your control?

Lots of us, myself absolutely included, worry way too much about things that we can't control.

And it doesn't take a genius to recognize that trying to control the uncontrollable is an exercise in futility.

Instead of worrying about things that we have no control over, try to shift your focus to the things you can actually take charge of in your running (and your life).

When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. At least, that's how the saying goes.

For many runners, being forced to run on the treadmill is akin to having a boatload of lemons.

So if you find yourself on the proverbial hamster wheel, due to weather or some other act of God beyond your control, you might as well make some treadmill lemonade.

Patsy Ramirez-Arroyo isn't one to give up when the going gets tough.

When Hurricane Marie devastated Puerto Rico, she laced up her shoes and ran around the island checking on friends and family members to make sure they were ok.

Days after finishing the Badwater 135 in 2018, she found a lump in her breast and began a battle with cancer. Now she's cancer-free and back to her training.

There is no doubt that whatever life throws her way next, she will overcome and keep moving forward!

Richard Schlenk is as busy as they come.

A few of the titles he has earned include neurosurgeon, race director, ultra runner, husband, and father.

Clearly, in order to wear all of those hats, he doesn't waste much time on things that don't matter.
