    Howdy!

     

    I posted a way too long run report on my blog...   http://wp.me/phwsX-42

     

    Or the condensed version.

     

    I trained well (for me).

    I finished with my two friends in 6:15  (first ULTRA!)

    It was really muddy

    It was really rainy

    It was beautiful and a whole lot of fun.   I have to say I think forests are more gorgeous in the rain.

     

    Pacific Coast Trail Runs still does a fabulous job.

     

    And after?   I was sore (and still am) but with no weird aches and pains.

    Two blisters on my toes - probably due to being soaked and muddy.

     

    and the big question - Would I do it again in the same conditions?    YES

    It's hard to look down if you don't go up

      Congrats oon your first Ultra!  Awesome job stickingt it out through the mud and all!

        Thanks!   Sticking through it is right...  There were places where my shoes were nearly sucked off.

          Fun report! It sounds like you had a blast. I'd love to see that luminescent foliage - too cool.

          Congratulations!
