An anonymous person posted a comment on my last link and it brings up a question on which I would love some discussion. Are Limits real, or self-imposed?

Tom Chorny is a runner in the dusk of his career. Will age, injury or time defeat him as he chases his lifelong dream, or will this old dark horse muster up one more performance, worthy of the Olympic Rings? A population of 312,620,000 and only 3 will earn the right to represent the U.S.A. in the 3K Steeplechase. 28 Barriers, 7 water jumps, and no more than 8 minutes and 23.1 seconds to do it. Follow him on this journey as the second hand turns and the Olympics draw near.
