Training/ Health

Chronic aches a given in the endurance game, but quitting hurts worse than the injuries.

Savannah runner Jim Hite ran through the pain of his morning run last September as he was suffering a heart attack and didn't even know it. Some people just don't know when to quit, says Michelle LaFleur, Savannah's 30 year-old running star and Tybee marathon great. When your body is saying no, your first reaction is to ignore it. Hite's case presents a lesson to all runners preparing for this weekend's race, become more in-tune with your body.
