My tradition (4 yrs in a row) was brought to a halt last year (Injury). I am not in shape to do 50K currently - But I want to try and re-establish my 12/24 Fat-Ass 50K TM run.
Anyone want to Virtually join me? You can do it outside or in - Friday - Sunday. My attempt will be tomorrow morning.
I will also try and do one 12/31
Maybe I should call it trying to De-Fat my ass 50k
Long dead ... But my stench lingers !

TM is easy - You will likely do something crazy like 3x the 11.2
Maybe I will throw in some fake half-ass hills just for you A1

I struggle to stay on my TM more than an hour. Just get too bored - impressed that you can pull off 50K.

Run the 11.2 @ 20 degrees, followed by a hilly 5k on new years day?
I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.
Poor baby
lets do it.

a hilly 5k on new years day?
Come up here. You can do a flat 5k followed by the polar bear plunge. Jumping (all the way) in Lake Michigan on New Year's Day is an invigorating way to start the new year.

I think you found your man for the Polar Plunge
Better yet, we'll find one on Lake Winnebago!
Found out how far gone I am - I could not do 50k - Slow, cautious - Only made 21 miles - I will try again Sunday.
On a happy note - Its the 1st time since Monkey that I ran > 15 miles.
Nice
But were we supposed to do the TM 50k at once?
I'm spreading it out over the three days (11, 11, 11)
THe goal of 50k all depends on the person - I think 50K over 3 days is just fine - I personally will try again tomorrow for 50 all at once.
The bad is I have been fighting being sick since Wednesday night - a light fever, sinus junk, headache, chest conjestion. So I hope I feel better tomorrow!
I hope Santa was good to everyone.
A little bummed I missed this. I took the last week of the year off from running before I start my Marathon Training plan and I didn't even log into RA. I would have attempted something like this. Oh well at least I got 7 straight days of rest. That only happened 3 times last year.
