RWD


    Woof. Went exploring in my new neighborhood and ended up running down, then up, a huge hill with soft snow. My legs are so chewed up. It made me wonder anew why so many people decided to push hard through the snowpack at WSER last year.

      just heard back from RD. turns out there was water, just no one i asked knew where it was

       

      I talked to the RD, he said he told everyone “if a guy named Fnkyhd asks where the water is just play dumb”.   /s

              Haha, that was me at Marin Ultra Challenge a couple weeks ago.  25k was plenty, especially after I wiped out.  

               

              I'm doing a HM tomorrow in SF.  Some trails, some roads.  A freebie from volunteering.

                  The Barkley is underway.

                   

                  I'm running a 10 miler in the morning and am totally meh about it. Like if I overslept I wouldn't be too bummed. I'm not super interested in running right now and I also got bed bugs from the moving truck so we're dealing with that ourselves until the exterminator can get in here on Tuesday or Wednesday. Wheeee. So even sleeping isn't fun!

                    Is this the Ultra Forum?  Suck it up guys.  Kidding, kidding (I didn't even get a long run in this week).

                     

                    Good luck to those racing the shorter distances.

                        put my RR for 25K in a separate stand alone post due to its excessive length.

                         

                        Barkleys are on, as RWD points  out, #BM100  Looks Foggy.
