RE: My 1st 100 Mile Ultramarathon: Grindstone 100

in #adventure7 years ago

I have great respect for anyone that even attempts a 100 miler @raelynnbianca! I admire your persistence and determination to make it to the finish line.

I ran my first 100 miler in September. I love hearing other people's stories about their adventure through the race because everyone's journey is different. Those on the outside just don't understand what a great experience it is even though it hurts... bad!

How many toenails did you lose? 😜

Sort:  

Nice! Which did you run? Surprisingly, I only ever lost 2: one here and the other at the North Face 50. I’ve been blessed with narrow feet so I think that helps haha

I ran Children of the Cane 100. It's a smaller race. How many ultras have you ran?

I have run 6, in order: Blue Cruise 50k, North Face Endurance Challenger DC 50 miler, Labor Pains 12 hour, Grindstone 100, Lavaredo Ultra Trail and Twisted Branch 100k. The last two were DNF.

Wow you are a seasoned vet. I'm still a rookie!

Ha! I wouldn’t go that far! I still have a lot to learn (and run)!
