-
For the record all you all, do NOT be me.
-
making good calls is such a big part of racing, and you made a great call. Sorry the race didn't turn out well, but you gave what you could and called it a day when you need to. Good Job.

Good morning all! Looking at a full moon on tomorrow Friday the 13th.... can we tell how excited I am about how my students will be? Looking at locking up my 2020 race calendar in the near future. I hope you are all having a Runderful Thursday!

Teasers from 2 of the last sections. I obviously can't write sequentially. Temperance River SP to Sawbill Trail 5.7 miles In this section I got a hint that I might be stronger than I think. Even though I was walking almost everything, I was FASTER on the hike up Carlton Peak, than I was the flatish mile before it and the…

Here's the first draft of the first part, of like 14 parts to the RR. it's pretty unpolished, but I wanted to give a little glimpse into the race. Superior. Where do I start? Maybe with the quick, easy stuff. The Superior 100 Mile Endurance Run is a 103 mile ultra marathon on the Superior Hiking Trail in Northern…

I was at the AS for the wedding. The 2 of them looked amazing. They were really smart, running together, taking long breaks at each AS to stay relatively fresh. Normally they would beat me to an AS, then I'd leave before them. They beat me to the last 2 AS and finished in front of me. Both are really cool people, they took…

Awesome! That post race daze can last a while. Congrats on the finish.

@mbaker566 ouch! Hope you have a speedy recovery!

Superior 100 this past weekend. took me 6 hours than I wanted, but that's how it goes sometimes.
-
Hi all. Thanks for all the encouragement. Official time was 36:01:57. That was about 6 hours off of my goal pace. I was doing well until about 56 miles in when my light died and that slowed me down. Feet started to go at around 60 miles, and I really couldn't run after that. Other than my feet feeling pounded to hell, and…

Sorry to hear about this. Don't worry though. Ultras are always out there. Getting all healed up is super important. Take care of your hip and get healthy. Then you'll be in a good spot to train for an ultra.

Hey all. Missedmy first run of the month, yesterday, because there was a medical call in the BWCA. I got called in, then sat around and waited because there was enough people, Ended Saturday night with dinner at 2200 had the hour drive back to the squad, then the 30 minute drive home. Oh, my race is in 4 days!

In it for September Goal for September is 116.8 miles, give or take a little.

Hi all. Popping in really quick. Scanned through all the posts I've missed and you all are awesome. Live has been crazy busy, with the school year about to begin, getting to taper before my race next week, being dad to a very active 4.5 year old, having a guest speaker for my school stay at my house, and going to training…
-
taper time. 8 days until Superior. After that, time to reevaluate what kind of crazy I want next year.
-
That plan looks fine. Your goal is to finish, so just follow the plan and, on race day, just take it easy and have fun. For nutrition, experiment and find what works for you. I personally like Tailwind, as it has gotten me through races from 50k-100 miles. I also eat food at Aid Stations. Quesidillas and grilled cheese…
-
Hi all. Popping in. tonight might be my last night online this week, so I wanted to see how everyone is doing you all rock! 30 days, 13 hours, and 22 minutes until the real fun begins.

as long as the company doesn't have an Italian or Russian sounding name, and offering you a "deal you can't refuse" you should be OK.

Lakeview Loan Servicing might be the actual company name. My mortgage in my last house was bought by Lakeview. myloancare was the website to go to

Hi all. Just popping in really quick. I have been pretty absent for the last half year, and only been lurking in here every once in a while. With life IRL getting busier and busier, this awesome challenge group has gotten away from me. With work, doing dad stuff (4yo is on 2 wheels on his bike now!) and being an applicant…

Full on training for Superior, just 34 days until I toe the line!

Goy Voyageur next Saturday, and Superior in the beginning of September.

You beat me to it. I'm not around here much but wanted people to know.

Keeping track of him on FB is where I am. He did a great job pushing on.
