Event: ROC - Mendon Trail Run
 

50K. Only doing this for a training run. I plan on listening to my hip which may mean walking most hills.

Things you shouldn't do:

1) Run an ultra when you are injured= worked out fine. Hip only talked to me on the hills. On the last two laps I walked anything with a slight incline.

2) Wear a brand new pair of shoes= Wasn't a factor until it started to rain. I had no clue what their limits were on muddy trails. Almost fell multiple times.

Unofficial splits.
1:03:12
1:06:53
1:10:26
1:14:30
1:23:15

Horrible last split was a combination of factors.

1) I have not been able to train enough. Finding flat places to run is boring and I definitely need to get in more hours.

2) I trails turned into little streams. There were enough runners left on the course that even the mowed sections got chewed up.


ROC did a great job hosting this! Thanks!

First run in Stinson.
