Just posted my 'intentions' to Fastest Known Times:

-----

Hello FKT Enthusiasts!

The weather is looking good (and Denis is hosting the race), so: I will be attempting a supported completion of the Batona Trail Out-and-Back, starting this Friday (2016-11-04) around dusk at the Southern Terminus (Bass River State Forest end).

I will be running through the night in anticipation of then competing (hah!) in the Batona 50, which starts at 7am from Ong's Hat, heading south.

As mentioned, this is a supported attempt. While it will be self-supported north-bound (I'll drop a few bags on Friday), it will be fully-supported south-bound, with aid stations and other runners to help me enjoy my time on the trail even more, which will be awesome! If I can stay ahead of the cutoffs and in touch with any other runners! That's some good motivation! :)

Assuming the tech works, I will be posting a Garmin LiveTrack to my Facebook page for interested friends and family, and then will post a report link here with gear list, a few pics, and the GPX track -- likely on Sunday.

Hopefully the Jersey Devil will be out of town, or at least in a generous mood.

So nice out. Staying limber.

Wow, gorgeous day. Busy one, though. A few ultra-pace laps on the Big Field. Lovely. Stunning.
