Eat to run, Run to eat
Its been a while since I showed my face here ( since I'm no longer running), but If I could
I would like to invite anyone interested to check out the Connecticut Ultra Traverse 112 mile run on June 2-3, 2018
The Connecticut Ultra Traverse (#CUT112) is a 112 mile trail running event following the Blue Blazes of the New England Trail from the MA-CT border to the Long Island Sound in Guilford, CT. Shorter distances are also encouraged.

Jody, good to hear from you. Why no running?
Hope you are well. Miss your jumping race photos.
“Paralysis-to-50k” training plan is underway!
Heya, AT!!
Kind of fell off the wagon. Had some hip and abdominal floor issues, around the fall of of 2014, then lost my job, and the new job is 1:15 commute each way..unless there's traffic, and all that sitting wrecked my low back... and put on 30 lbs.
Enough..I'll take some cheese with all my wine-ing. Hopefully I'll improve my back with PT and get back out there.
In the meantime I'm "support coordinator" for the 2nd annual CUT112 We had 25 participants last year, completing anywhere from 5 or 10 to 62 miles, and had two that ran the entire distance across CT.
Faster Than Your Couch!
Hey jbyram, good to hear from you again.
I hope your health issues will improve again soon. I have also noticed that with less running, I have more problems, with joints mainly, and the back. I find that trail running is apparently an excellent core strengthening exercise, so I get out to run occasionally, even though my time is very limited, too.
And I also find that staying connected with the sport (as a volunteer, etc.) really brings back the motivation.
Stick around, and get back into running again! Even just a few miles help.
Run for fun.
Thanks for the encouragement!
