The can't-walk feeling you get after doing something that's pushed your boundaries (for me it was the 5K I ran last summer in which I beat my best high-school time) is the epitome of "good pain".
Pretty amazing that you can pull off a 27 mi walk on a spur the moment decision and live to tell about it! I doubt I'd ever have enough spontaneous ambition to do that, let alone with friends who'd join me on a moment's notice.
The answer's probably right in front of me, but did you ever find out the meaning behind the walk?
Well, what meaning? The professed meaning is willful suffering in the name of the lord on the day when Jesus suffered so deeply.
For me, it was really about pushing human limits and seeing what was possible. Though so much of what I saw and experienced seemed holy and beautiful, I couldn't find god nor did I feel him helping me. It actually kind of bothers me that it wasn't a more spiritual experience - it's just not how I'm wired.
