Sounds fun. I'm thinking about camping out the night before the Buffalo Run 50k in March. I paid a couple of dollars extra for that option, just in case.

sounds fun - is that the one on antelope island?

From DonGardinero on Tue, Oct 26, 2010 at 13:35:33 from 75.162.166.27

Yeah, that's the one. I've been wanting to do it for a few years now and finally signed up for it. Last year the registration closed the day before I tried to register, so I missed out on it. I did, however, go out to the island to watch Maynard and Fly run the 50k, which was cool. I think that's when Fly debuted the infamous pineapple shirt.

cool - that will keep you logging the miles and long runs this winter for sure. that'll be your ultra debut?

From DonGardinero on Tue, Oct 26, 2010 at 13:57:50 from 75.162.166.27

Yep, my first ultra. I've signed up for a couple of ultra's in the past and ended up having to drop out for one reason or another. I was signed up to run the Pony Express 50 miler last weekend, but after my issues at the Park City marathon and St. George, my training was lacking, so I dropped out. The race director was nice enough to roll my entry to next year.

that sure was nice of the RD.

Sounds like a fun weekend. You had a great race considering your super high milage without any taper. You're going to have an amazing Half when you are all rested up and ready to fly.

From timp on Tue, Oct 26, 2010 at 15:54:52 from 136.182.2.25

thanks Rhett - I hope so. This week is so low mile it is like a vacation from running...
