Who’s up Saturday?

[campermom]

It’s 2:59 am and I can’t sleep. It’s 50k day!! I leave at 5:45. Start at 9 and will run beyond 4:00 pm. It’s a likely possibility I’ll be swept but we will see!! I hope to repost as an ultramarathoner! I could do without my sore throat and cough.

I ran this morning and am now doing some meal planning for next week.

Good luck, campermom!!

[Wines Not Whines]

Good luck, campermom!!!

I’m up and getting ready to meet my group for an 18 mile run. I hope it’s not too slushy out there!

[labbie]

campermom, have a great race!
I'm up early on a day I could sleep in because I forgot to turn off my Saturday workout alarm :-(. Yoga later and then hoping this snow storm really does hit so we can get out and snowshoe tomorrow.

[mrshandy]

Have a great race!!

I’m heads out for 10 miles with some friends.

[hurricanedrunk]

Best of luck today campermom !

I’m up for 10 and it’s cold & windy with a feels like temp of -8. Ouch. I could only talk my friend into 7 miles. There better be breakfast after this!

[cinco]

Yea! Good luck campermom!!

[bostonmichelle]

Good luck campermom!

It’s my birthday today!

Jumping on the trainer soon for an hour ride. Then a kid birthday party and then out for beers and dinner later for my birthday.

[melmel48]

campermom, Go get it! Good luck and have fun! Happy Birthday, bostonmichelle,

I am on my way to the gym, but I haven't decided what I will be doing. A friend recommended the stair climber so maybe I will give that a shot. In other news, as of this morning I have lost 8 lbs. Only 42 more to go!

[al320]

Good luck!

I have an easy 6-7 miles today. Im feeling lazy but need to get it done before the snow starts this afternoon.

[brooke77]

I’m heading out for 5 miles with the dog. We are supposed to get about a foot of snow tonight so I’m going to enjoy the clear sidewalks while I can.

[scm1011]

GOOD LUCK campermom!
Happy Birthday, bostonmichelle!

I’m heading out for 8 miles shortly. It will be my longest run in many months!

[lilypad1126]

campermom , good luck today! You’ve got this!
bostonmichelle , happy birthday!

I’m about to head out for a hilly 6.5 miles. The rain is coming, then the snow and ice, then the bitter cold, so it’s the only chance I’ll have to run outside this weekend.

[sadlebred]

campermom Good luck!!!!
bostonmichelle Happy, Happy Birthday!

It's the weekend in ATL, so that means it's raining. I am going to do an hour of tempo on the trainer. I have a yoga for cyclists seminar & class this afternoon. I can't wait! I did it a couple of years ago, and it was great. It's put on by one of my cycling race teammates. I'm not sure what my late afternoon plans are.

[wineandcheese]

Good luck campermom!

I slept in this morning. I’m going to do a yoga video in a little while. Later we are picking up some sandwiches and going to the beach. We will probably go for a walk before we leave the beach.

[chw57]

Good luck, campermom!

I ran 10 miles with a running group

[oswin]

Was planning to run with DD and DS2 today, but I got very little sleep due to DD throwing up a few times last night. Maybe tomorrow. Luckily DD feels fine now, so whatever it was was over quickly.

[keweenawlove]

Good luck everyone! I've had a semi productive morning cleaning the house and shoveling but still need to workout. Heading out for a run soon since the streets seem to be cleared.

Also, I'm totally going to AW. I had a really good say yesterday. My boss just told me my appointment to Research Assistant Professor was approved and I got a notice that I had an article accepted to a Nature publication!

Badass! Congratulations!!!

[goldengirlz]

Up in Napa for the long weekend. Did a five mile hike this morning, now grabbing a quick lunch before 🍷.

[wawa]

2.5 ish hours on the trainer done. And swim. My butt hurts

[sadlebred]

keweenawlove Congratulations!!

I sold a bike today.

[campermom]

I finished. I dk if my time will be recorded. While I did not get swept, the last aid station was removed before I got there and the timing mat, too. I walked the last mile in the dark. It was muddy and snowy but I didn’t fall. It was harder than my marathon, my watch showed 3600 feet of elevation gain. The chicken broth with noodles at the bottom was the best thing I’ve ever eaten in my life.

So I have a honest question and please answer in a factual way, not one to make me “feel” better bc I am perfectly content with my performance! But...if my times not recorded, am I considered to have completed an ultra? They haven’t posted yet so I’m not sure what it will say....my 25k will get recorded...so it shouldn’t say DNF. Can I put the 50k sticker on my car?

Awesome job. I say if you did the distance, and you totally did, you finished and you earned your sticker.

ABSOLUTELY! If anything you are more badass for going so long and in incredibly tough conditions! Congratulations on a huge accomplishment!

YES to the sticker!! Congratulations on toughing it out!

[Wines Not Whines]

campermom If you finished the distance, then I say you are a finisher!

[sadlebred]

campermom Put that sticker on your car! You ARE a 50k finisher!

[campermom]

Great news, I’m recorded! It’s officially official, I was pleasantly surprised. I guess the mat was still there afterall and maybe they cleared it when the sweeper came. I’m gonna buy that sticker this week.

I just registered for next year. Dammit.
