Runalong

We leave tomorrow! Steve and I will be shooting for under nine hours. Mark hasn't had much time to train so he'll just be shooting for the finish line. Likewise Lorelei, who has trained but this is her first 50 miler and she finished her three 50K's near the very back of the pack. Ted is just hoping to make it to the starting line (ITB problems). We'll be joining 500 others. Sound hard? Helen Klein finished the race in 2004 in about 12 1/2 hours (the cut-off is 13 hours). She set a record for her age group. Of course, at 82, she WAS her age group.

The weather is expected to be cool and slightly damp. I'm getting antsy...
