Sent in my check for Wasatch so with some luck of the draw I will run it again in 2013. I want it more now than I did last year.
In February I will be running the Moab 50K. I am going to run light and quick. One or two handhelds bottles, and fuel will be all gel, in the pockets. It's how I train.
In March I will in a racing mode for Buffalo Run 100 Mile. I know I can place in the top 10, so I will be seeking to upgrade my place from there. I will run with one handheld bottle and fuel mostly on gels. I took gels and maybe a few Stinger waffles, and of course popsicles, all the way through to mile 53 of Wasatch so it is a plan that works for me. With my feet feeling good I can do some damage.
Speedgoat will again be a highlight of my 2013. I will be signing up January 1st.
If I do not get into Wasatch I will take the money saved and split it for two other 100 mile events. Yeah.
Soon I want to get at least one ultra-distance run in per month, upwards of 50 miles. But I have been listening to my body and right now I am hearing "don't run". It is OK to take time off. |
