| CCC100, Cascade Crest 100 Mile trail run (101 due to getting lotst for 1M at mile 95), my first 100M trail run and did really well (14/68), was in about 28th position at the halfway mark and then had jerry (47-67) and yumay (67-100) pace me pretty hard, gaining spot over spot all through the night and sunday... great run, bad-ish blisters, stomach problems but ok performance, and really strong legs, kind of freaky how I was still able to just bomb the last 3 downhills with yumay... |
