This is a test. If things turn out funny and there are multiple little posts, I apologize in advance to anyone reading this before I can clean it up. With travel and race season fast approaching, I need (want) a few ways to update my blog and keep you informed on my progress, results and such. My other method works, but is a little slower and not as consistant with access. Texting in my blog reports used to work well, but in the last few months it has been acting up. I haven't been able to get one complete post sent via texting, despite resetting the accout a few times. So again, if things look weird, I will clean it up later. If not, this was a tech test!
A long way on foot - Sheep Mountain Endurance Run
Fifty miles is a long way - regardless of how you travel. As I was training and preparing for Sheep Mountain Endurance Run, I knew that it would be a long day - I knew that there would be ups and downs, that the plan would have to be fluid and goals adjusted mid-race. That is the nature of endurance sports and the people who achieve are the ones who can go with the flow and find the ability to turn things around if they do go south. Obviously, for my first 50, I was hoping for nothing but smooth sailing - with no dark spots, no demons and smiling the whole way. A girl can always hope, right? Runners assembled for the start Photo - Human Potential Running The sun was just starting to brighten the clouds as we walked to the starting line with nearly 100 other runners. The race director went through a few things, noting that there had already been some DNS's due to the elevation and to be smart. Smart... Most people would say smart would mean not doing something like a 50 mile
