Run Wild 5 K - Long Run Warm Up...

This was a last minute run for me, but I planned a night run before the race and just had to keep both going. A big group of us met up at Bald Mountain North for a night run of 20ish miles Friday around 12:00am. And as the night went into morning , more and more of the group fell off - heading home, to work, or simply to bed. By dawn, our group of 9 was whittled down to four. We called it at 21 miles...except for Dale, who needed a few more miles to get in his long run of the week. After getting home and showering, I took a cat-nap on the couch for 30, then got packed up to head to Riverbend Park for the race. and since i planned on doing it as a fun run to get in the rest of the mileage for my long run, I decided to wear my 101s - just nice and easy on the sidewalks.

The Crim - 6 Days After Leadville

Ha! I just can't believe how well this went. I had no clue if my legs would even carry me that far, never the less allow me to run. But, they did get pretty pissed at me around mile 8. By mile nine, they stopped working well, and by the end of the race, they hated me!

Burning River 100M - DNFed But Learned Some Good Lessions

Don't run 7 minute miles at the start of a 90 degree, 100 mile race. It usually doesn't end well...

The President's Challenge Gold Award



Yea! It took 141 days to do it, but I received the President's Challenge GOLD AWARD! I really didn't know how long it would take to get, but I figured it wouldn't be very long with all of the Ultra Marathon training planned for the year. Next up, the PLATINUM AWARD - only 850,000 points to go.
