How to run 500 miles
How I did it: so i finally finnshed my goal of running 500 miles while I was in Africa... I actually eneded up running 555 miles and I participated in the Grand Bara Run which was a rewarding experience in its own right... I miss runnig in Africa no that Im back in the states... I miss the red African clay under my feet and the little desert animals scurring off as I run off the beaten path on t a trail that hasn't ever really been ran before... I miss finishing my run just before sunset and watching the sun as it lays down for the night and warm glow off in the distance as i take it in for the night. I miss it all and If I ever go back to africa I plan on running a 1000 miles...
Lessons & tips: Take it slow and work up... if you go all out you'll get hurt before you reach your goal...
