Check in day, but tomorrow is the big race. Super excited to see how I do. 100 miles in 30 hours is the goal. So far, I’ve met a few people, and everyone seems very nice and enthusiastic about hitting the trail tomorrow. Can’t wait!
A couple shots from the actual race…
Didn’t even come close to being any of the front runners. This was truly an eye opening experience. Holy hell, is it hard to walk/run 100 miles. My hats off to the whole community of ultra-marathon enthusiasts. This takes stamina beyond anything remotely normal. I’ve learned a ton!!! A big thank you to my trainer for encouraging me to try my luck. Came in literally at the very end, two hours after the cut off for the Western States Qualifier, but I was here to learn, and that’s what I did. From what I was told, 400 runners started, and only 300 finished. So, I’m going to just pat myself on the back for making it. It was amazing. Definitely would like to try it again next year now that I know more about it.
