Does his wife say "I have to be honest, I wasn't a believer in you, but you did it"?? Gee thanks. Also I'm not 100% convinced he didn't puke afterwards but either way THAT WAS AMAZING. I'm sure at that pace I would die, sober or not.

An 8-year old ran a 22:?? local 5k that I ran Saturday! It must be all the hormones in the food nowadays ????????????

You're awesome! Congrats!

I ran 2 half Mary's 7 days apart and lived to tell the tale. ???????????? I PR'd the first one but the 2nd one the weather was so dreadful I didn't have an opportunity so I supported a friend & first time 13.1 runner. Makes lots of time for recovery between the two. I think you'll be fine!

That would be amazing!!! ???????????? I got a 267 and got overly excited for moment lol.

Nike has the best customer service in my experience. I run exclusively in Nike Free's and had an issue recently and they more than made up for if. ETA: I am very happy you found a winner!!! ????????????

Good luck Zekela and Sarah!!!!!! Please keep me posted!

Luckily this race does not have a minimum hour or lap requirement, you do as much as you can within the 24 hour period. The only way you'd get a DNF is if you DNS lol.

If you've been putting in the miles, rest. Trust your training. These last few runs won't make you or break you, but you might feel even worse Saturday if you don't rest.

This is exactly what I was thinking. I'm glad someone else thinks I might not be crazy ???? when is your ultra?

Do it!!! Half Mary's are addictive. I have run 5 in the last 7 months. I think you can be trained properly for the one in May ????????????

???????????????????????????? I love supporting my local race companies who support local businesses and local charities.

Here too. Lucky that way I guess...

Could be lots of things; a little caffeine helps me. I used to get exertion headaches from spending too much of my run in the anaerobic zone. They would come on like migraines. Could very well be dehydration or low electrolytes too... Take care of yourself!

I fuel with HoneyStinger.com products; they make gels, waffles, chews, bars, etc. They make my races and super long runs more enjoyable! ????

I'm an adult onset runner also, you can all request if you'd like. Please send a message. Thanks ????

I don't get it, at all...

Sorry to sidetrack but I saw a bib in the trash after a race a week or two ago. I seriously almost got teary eyed. All my bibs are hanging on my "running wall of fame" with all my medals and other such stuff ❤️

Dave your post is 100% why running a 24-hour event is so appealing to me. So sorry to hear about your DNF especially since you would've done so well as a 50k finisher! Thanks for sharing!

Dang it kavery has faster thumbs and isn't as long winded as me. Lol.

No judgement but aughhhh this makes me sad lol. I'm not very fast and have only been running competitively for 13 months but I cannot imagine not keeping every single race momento! I wear the cotton ones (kind of rare for me) when I'm running errands, cleaning, lounging and the tech ones when I'm training. Maybe find…

I too use an excel spreadsheet btw

I'm totally geeking out reading these posts!!! Thanks for sharing and for the advice!!! I'm "thinking" about training to complete 50k in 16 of the 24 hours. That's 2 miles/hour. I will not commit without LOTS of training on tired legs. Currently I run about 40-60 miles and recently ran my four fastest miles after running a…

I'm definitely trying to find someone to pace! Especially in the overnight portions. I won't even begin to commit to running one unless I'm completely ready. It's a huge commitment and distance. I'm thinking there's just so much flexibility to set the pace and distance in a 24-hour. If I complete 2 miles/hour for 16 of the…

You are crazy in the most amazing way...

I've run 5 half marathons and average about 40-60 mpw but my 10k PR is still 61:00. You really have to decide if you want to build endurance or get faster. Fortunately both are accomplished simply by running more (increasing in a smart way; not too much too soon) just as many others mentioned above. Congrats and good luck!…

This ^^^!!!

???????????????? This is me 100% but I do yoga for recovery sometimes when I think about it ????

I am IN LOVE with this!!! ????????????
