Green Lakes Endurance 50k

Ultras are all about the race course and the support. 5 stars for both. The course had gravel, hills with rocks and roots, wood chips covering mud and a beautiful winding field. PB&J, Chocolate chip cookies and many different drinks. Inside bathroom with soap a plus. 4 laps around 2 pretty lakes with warm sunny weather. Lots of shade. The best was cold water at the last stop on the last lap, the ice even went into my 10oz. bottles. My split times were 1:22, 1:25, 1:26 and 1:23. I felt great and kicked it in at the end.

Green Lakes Endurance Run 50k Tomorrow

It's here and I am excited to run my second 50k. I have some issues lately and I haven't been able to get acupuncture for about 6 weeks but this race should allow me to take it somewhat easy and be able to change shoes if I need to as well.
Monday night I received a 90 minute massage from Cecilia  https://www.facebook.com/ceciliamajorlmt?fref=ts and it was an amazing session. I felt like my energy was floating above me at one point and I was vibrating through much of the session. I never experienced anything like it.

Stepping up

In the past 5 days I have run 42.2 miles, 4 double digit days this month already. Yes I am trying to step up my mileage to prepare for the 50k and 50 miler. I take Tuesday off to give myself an extra day for the massage to take effect and I run longer on Wednesday. 68 miles total so far this month.
