this summer's gonna be wierd for me. dealt with the itb injury all winter and am finally running again. gonna try to take it easy this summer trying to build back up endurance and only run a few trail races unlike my plans pre-injury which had more races involved. i'm looking forward for the trails to open up (i know... blasphemy on a skiing website)
Wow I suck. I ran the 25K at the Pineland Farms trail Challenge yesterday and I think I came in around 66th wow thats shitty. I think I ran like a 8 something min. mile I have to wait for official results. My 50k pace is around 11 min miles these 25k people are fast. I got worked the last five miles I was past by around 20 or so people. Good race super cool place Pineland Farms lots of rolling fields up, down, up, down,up, down,up, down,up, down,up, down, it was relentless. I need to step up my training and get back to running to the top of my local ski area. Oh well I did drink free beer, pretty funny rolling up to the beer dood with nothing but shorts a bib and sneakers and having the dood ask for my ID.
Wow... you guys are rediculous. I can't IMAGINE running a 50k, let alone racing it.
This is kinda funny. From Trail Runner Mag.
The entry form for the Gunpowder Keg Fat Ass 50K, in Hereford, Maryland, includes this disclaimer: "No entry fee. Bring your own supplies. Any potential refreshments, meals, etc., are subject to the whims of potential sponsors … If you want to be fed at a race, you can go pay $35 and run a flat, fast 5K and get a cheap cotton T-shirt to wipe the crumbs of a day-old, cinnamon-raisin bagel that tastes suspiciously like onions."
Pineland Farms trail Challenge 25K results are official and posted I placed 66th out of 264 runners for a time of 2:13:20. The winner finished in 1:42:23 damn thats fast.
bummed..
first day of the fourth week of bronchitis.
any sort of exertion whatsoever leads to uncontrollable fits of coughing, which has kept me from running for almost a month. my only recourse appears to let the disease run its course, but it's taking so damned long.
