World class.
I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.
Poor baby
Not much to add here except that Mohican was my first 100 - ran splits of 9hr/12hr for 21:15 finish.
Indeed, I did go out waaay too fast in the first 50k. While I made it to 80 miles (last time through Covered Bridge) by nightfall, I was reduced to a walk for much of the last 15 miles due to blown quad muscles. The last 10 miles are on dirt roads yet I couldn't run.
Have fun at Mo'
Dang! Just a "long run"???

But I had a blast. There is something surreal about watching the sun rise and fall and rise again while one is running. It is amazing the boost of energy, the quickness of step that comes with the sunrise and only a couple of miles to go. It may perhaps be the most primal, existential feeling. Trail running and navigating in the dark was both exciting and sometimes irritating, but always exhilarating--especially staring across a river crossing, trying to find a break where the trail picks up, and starting to panic (get a little restless) that a wrong turn had been made several miles ago.
when someone asks "why," that is what you tell them
"As a dreamer of dreams and a travelin' man I have chalked up many a mile. Read dozens of books about heroes and crooks, And I've learned much from both of their styles." ~ Jimmy Buffett
"I don't see much sense in that," said Rabbit. "No," said Pooh humbly, "there isn't. But there was going to be when I began it. It's just that something happened to it along the way."”
You'll ruin your knees!
SWEET! Congrats on hanging through those tough conditions! Humidity is really challenging!
Rest well.
