Finished Long Haul 100 with a Sub 24 hour finishing time. This was my personal best for a 100 miler and I got the special green belt buckle since I completed the 100 miler in less than 24 hours. The route was flat but miserable due to the storms that hit the days leading up to the race which made a large amount of the route to be extremely muddy and wet.
Finished the Wildcat 100 miler earlier today. My 9th 100 miler completed and that makes 96 marathons.in less than 10 years. This one definitely had the most pain of all of them as the chafing and blisters were crazy.
Finished marathon #93 today at the Lake Martin 100 (8th 100 miler completed). This was definitely an epic race due to the weather conditions that attacked us throughout the night and next day!
Last weekend I finished the Rocky Raccoon 100 miler in Texas (north of Houston) with a time of 26:44:52. This was my 7th 100 miler completed and my 88th marathon I’ve completed since my first marathon I completed 9 years ago.
Finished Long Haul 100 miler with a time of 25:10:03. Wished I hadn’t been sick this past week, but at least I felt good enough on race day. The back of my jacket had ice on it when I finished.
After training with the couch to 100 miler training plan I started just over a month ago, I completed the 100 miler race and felt good.
Ended up dropping out around mile 55. Right from the beginning something didn’t reel right with me as my breathing wasn’t good and my heartbeat was high and was skipping. Instead of dropping out early, I decided to keep walking and see how far I could make it before missing the cut off time. I […]
Finished the Wildcat 100 miler just over 27 hours in the Florida heat. It was good running with and seeing everyone. Congrats to Phillip for his first 100 miler and also to Matt for finishing another 100 miler.
Out of the nine who started, only four of us completed the battle. It was not easy and was very challenging. Worst conditions to do a run or hike on the trails with everything overgrown, debris everywhere and flooding from the storms. The last 30 mile stretch to the finish was at the beach with […]
I wanted to test everything out before others do the route so I figured I’d run it solo for my birthday run (not until the 9th). Definitely some concerns on the trail due to tropical storm Claudette from a few weeks ago. I’ll discuss this with the group this next week.
Finished the Lake Martin 100 miler (my 67th marathon) and finally got my belt buckle. It was a great weekend spent with a lot of great friends. Congrats to everyone there and thanks to everyone out there supporting and helping each other. Good times for sure.
I may not have finished Pinhoti 100, but marathon #58 was a success in my books. Overall, I felt good throughout the entire run. I just couldn’t climb up Pinnacle fast enough to make the cutoff time. That was the last high climb and I missed it by about 5 minutes. The cut off time […]
