I like to do my last long run 3 weeks prior to the race. I am going to try something like 30/20, 20/10, 8/rest for the 3 weekends heading up to RR.NotSoDoomedRunner said:How long before an ultra do you typically do your last long run?

This damn injury screwed everything up worse than that time I thought my tooth brush was a Honey Badger, so Im set back a little and somewhat cautious of ramping up the long runs again, especially B2Bs... Im still confident that Ill be able to hit 50, but I think it will be a death march somewhere towards the end.
Yall will both be fine! But I'll put out some tissues and clean panties for yall at the finish line (chase - label yours so I don't grab a pair of your wife's out of yalls suitcase!)NotSoDoomedRunner said:Chaserwilliams said:Im not sure, looks like I might be able to sneak in a few B2Bs between now and then.

I'm feeling a tad the same. I really counted on this week being a big ramp up week after my week away for work and so far it has not been that great. Hopefully I can still get this 25 miler in this week.
