    I started a blog.  Go ahead and read all about my escapades as a 20-something training for my first ultra. Yippee!

      Good first entry.  Keep it up.

        I'd get on you for drinking all that booze post race... But I tend to do the same thing myself. :-)

         

        (Just beer though in my case, noooo hard liquor for me.   And that is why I don't start a Blog:  Me putting up a ton of pictures of post-race Michelob Ultra would not be very exciting at all!

         

        Which 50-mile are you pondering?  JFK-50 someday, or another 50-miler?

          I like your style. Wink

           

          I never thought about doing an ultra, but that distance seems manageable.  Good luck in your endeavors!

            Very nice Dani!  Is the title of your blog post an homage to the titles of Friends episodes?

            So bittersweet,
            This tragedy
            Won't ask for absolution;
            This melody,
            Inside of me,
            Still searches for solution.
            A twist of faith,
            A change of heart
            Cures my infatuation.
            A broken heart, 
            Provides the spark
            For my determination.

              I thought about JFK, but I'm not keen on the 25 miles on flat bike path idea....I'm not sure where I'm going to be living in the fall, so that is impacting my decision. Once I decide, you will definitely read about it on my blog!

               

              Also - I'm definitely a beer post-race/run girl. It's definitely the most refreshing and hydrating choice. Wink

                YES! I have always been a huge Friends fan, and only after I wrote that title did I associate where it was coming from.
