I don't know that it's dedication as much as the ability to become more the observer and less the sufferer. We are often guided in our pain by the old-lady monitor we are always carrying on our shoulder who cautions and scolds us into nonaction. When the Will takes over, even our strict controller is just observed. (“If I’m gonna die from this so be it, now shut up and let me manage this venture!”)

We can do many things we normally don't let ourselves do by simply detaching. Training is gaining an understanding of the body and mind weaknesses, and learning to deal with detachment at increasingly difficult levels. Achievements are more a result of riding the brakes as opposed to forcing oneself to overachieve. In the moment, generally what is being experienced is not extreme. Therefore it is a matter of not processing the time summation game and attending to the immediate needs of the body.

That is not to say that I did not use ibuprofen, or caffeine, or other legal stimulants as necessary. I had remedies for gut problems, chaffing, blisters and bruising. The body runs in a natural rhythm, and at 3:00 am it is often necessary to wake up the system. I did not utilize what I could not buy at the store, and I saved most of it for times of real need. Ibuprofen was the exception as its anti-inflammatory nature is often necessary for old men, if we are going to kick 40 year old wise guy ass. .
