Me and a friend are toying with the idea of Zion 100 in 2015, maybe we'll see you there!
... but my conditioing workouts whether they were in the gym or running were on average not more than 30min to 40 min long by themselves. Adding my warmup would make each workout roughly an hour.
Hey Rick-
You will rock! The one thing I wish I'd done on my DNF 100 was take salt tablets. By mile 50 I had stopped sweating, and was too boggled by then to admit that was a bad thing. Also: have a good back up crew. Will you have pacers?
John
darm, if you think an LSD will give you debilitating injuries, you think it wise to run an ultra?
At least go for the fifty! That's totally doable!
Will they let you move your registration out a year?
No 50 mile option, but I will be marking trails and doing clean up. I should get at least 50 in that weekend.
Hey Abide. How have you been? I can move the registration to next year or do any of the other Ultra Adventure races. The race entry was a freebie because of my work at previous races so I am not out any cash. That has me wonder though, if it had been a "real" registration would I have trained better and stuck it out?
The expat life is a good one. Things are inherently more interesting. Where are you exactly?That's great news I really was hoping to run some of their races. We are doing well we became expats a couple of weeks ago so we are trying to get situated in our new country. I haven't been running much but have definitely made up by walking. Oddly enough my body feels great haha. How are you and the family doing? Do you go stir crazy this time of the year?
I should post another neat little routine I was doing for a while. I'll do it on our other thread so we don't hijack Ricks too much.
