50 miles first, then 100 miles 1 month ago

Not currently living in a location that makes training for an ultramarathon feasible. Once I’m back in the United States, I plan on registering for a local/close 50 mile race. Will see how the 50 mile race goes first and then give myself another year to complete a 100 mile ultramarathon. This is a goal that I’m not going to rush, the risk of injury is too high. Work my way up in distance over two years.



Technically an ultramarathon..... 9 months ago

So I attempted the Vermont 50 mile over the weekend. I had been training since May, but a last-minute change of course meant that I had not trained on enough hills. A weekend rain deluge also made for crazy slippery and muddy conditions. The good news is that I can honestly say that I did my best, but the bad news is that the effort was insufficient to finish. The race staff pulled me off the course at mile 27 as my pace had fallen below the pace necessary to finish in 12h. Next time, I guess.

I need to work up to marathon distance first, lol. I’m doing a 12.2mi mountain run (2,000ft elev. chance starting aroun 9,000ft) at the end of August, so I’m mad excited about that, and hopefully I’ll continue doing this race (among others around that distance) for the next few years while I’m still in HS. Once I get to college I’m hoping to do a few marathons, then after that do at least one ultra when I have the time to train.

Hoping to run an ultra in Summer/Fall 08. Looking at running the Conquer the Canuck out in New Brunswick in mid-August.



My First Ultramarathon 2 years ago

Very good feeling after all. It was mountain ultramarthon – i finished it in 24 hours. Night hours were very difficult. I’ve missed path twice, but overall experience is wonderfull. I will do it again.



Burning River 100 2 years ago

I’m finishing my last season of track in 3 weeks, and I want to get into the marathons/ultras now! I’m going to try the Burning River 100 in OH in August - its a new one, and it’ll be the first one I run!

(I want to run an ultra before I run a marathon, or else I’m scared I might never want to race any further =D )

Two 50Ks and one near-50K later 2 years ago

The last one we had to finish early for flooding. But running around in waist-deep water was fun.

Week from Saturday am doing another 50K.

And in April comes the 50 miler!
