Finished my 13th 100 miler trail race today (112th marathon overall) at the Long Haul 100 near Lakeland, Florida. My knee issue held up pretty good but doing a couch-to-100 miler is not recommended to anyone!
Some views from my run today with the crazy fog blocking the bridge and cities.
The picture of the 3 mile bridge leading into the bay is facing towards Gulf Breeze.
The brighter blue picture should be showing downtown Pensacola from the bridge. Looks like Pensacola
If you haven’t paced or crewed someone at a 100+ miler yet, then you should. Completely different ball game and much different than a regular marathon or shorter ultras.
This was my third year in a row completing the Lang Haul 100 miler. My knee issue started flaring up and pretty much walked the majority of miles at the end.
Ran with the Crop Dusters in Destin and got marathon #109 on winter solstice 2024. Always great running with them.
Many thanks to Running Wild and everyone who has supported my journey! The book signing was a great event and it was so great seeing all my friends (old and new), my family and everyone else!
For anyone who missed it and wants to listen to my speech, I have included a video of it here.
