A little inspiration from the caffe wall.... and I just signed up for a new type of race. I might fail, but what if I don't?!? I might succeed. There is only one way to know!

Something I love about running: the open question. let's find out what we can do!

Taking walk breaks is a great strategy to boost endurance and tackle long runs. Taking breaks to pet the neighborhood pets is actually a requirement even on short runs

Best part of my routine, I swear she knows my schedule and waits for me

You read that right. Nearly a 2 HOUR improvement over his last marathon. I have watched Shane's success build to race day, balancing dad life, high work demands and keeping his focus on training and what a race day it was!

The focus and work it takes to make an improvement of that measure is enormous, please take a moment to celebrate Shane with me!

Can anyone else relate or is it just me??? I want to quit road runs early, but then I log extra miles on trails because I don't want to stop.

Ok ok not all the time. But there sure is enough magic on the trails to make me able to ignore the hills and rocks and still want more.

I guess my kids feel the same 😉, this was their trail run

Aaahhhh January in San Diego 🌞. I happily traded the time for the remaining mile and a half to stop and whale watch at mile 7. 🐋 migrate to Mexico this time of year but I am never lucky enough to spy them and I had to stick to my schedule because I promised to take the little ones rock climbing when I got back.

That's the face of someone that just got a surprise PR on her 50k while on the way to a 50 mile finish!

No one runs 50 miles, we run 10 or 7 or some other number over and over again. And I don't even look at my miles when I am running because mostly it doesn't matter. In this race I didn't even know what mile I was on till a little after 20 (I swear they FLEW by). And forget looking at elapsed time, that just makes it feel like an eternity until the finish line! That is how it snuck up on me that not only had I made it to the 50k mark, but that had just PR'd my time by 27 minutes.

When I realized what I had done I celebrated with another racer I had been running along with. I considered if this was bad news: going out too fast. Was it going to make me pay later? I decided not, that I had been conservative and felt crazy fresh even at that point. I knew I just had to keep being smart and keep control of my mind, not let that doubt take hold.

1 finish line: 2 PRs. So many emotions.
A 2 hour PR in the 50 mile with a 24 min PR in the 50k along the way.

More to share later. What a journey. Only made possible by all of the people that believed in me enough to make me believe in myself ✨️
