    Thanks guys. Made gear check and now in the obligatory porta potty line. It's going to be a slow run I am not in shape for this. I will go to my grave going why why why did I not train...

    You got this! Why don't you train? You seem like you train. :)

    I'd imagine you will do better than you think.

    You got it POF, even if you go slow. You will do better than you think you will. Plus this might be the kick in the pants you need to train before the ultra.

    I am never ever never doing this again without training. Okay after next week's half ironman that I am not trained for, I am never ever never doing this without training again. That was so painful. I am too old for running 26 miles every 2 months and like nothing in between.

    It was a nice course and I got a great medal and a nice finishers jacket. But boy do I hurt. I decided on course since #sobertilPuertoRico and #nocandytilPuertoRico and #lentchallenge are almost up here is my new one. #365daysofdailyexercise. Today was day 1.

    Edited to add I'll add photos later after I recuperate with some cat therapy.

    And I had a random thought on course (one of many). Kelly is nearing her 2 year anniversary of logging. But given it's leap year is it at 730 days. Or 731?

    In the past two days I have planted two kinds of lettuce, spinach, peas, pole beans, blueberry bushes and raspberry bushes and done a full body lifting session. You know what hurts? My forearms. I'd have expected it to be my back from moving so much dirt, but nope. It's the forearms. Sooooo looking forward to yoga class tomorrow, but if Jane has us do planks, I might just die.

    I knew you could do it! The soreness will go away.
