Wow! I ran 50 miles today! First Ultra down! I survived! I ran with my son and a friend of mine from high school! Both of us turned 50 this year and so I wanted to "celebrate" by running a 50-mile Ultra! My son wanted to support me! He's such a trooper...doesn't train, but just shows up and runs! I love his enthusiasm! The last 10 miles were the toughest ever...up a ginormous hill then down the same elevation to the finish line! Took for ever to run the last 10! Support was the best! Will I ever run another? Don't ask now...I need to recover and seriously think about that one! :)

    Thank you everyone for your comments! It is now Monday and feeling a lot better today than yesterday...just a little sore, but nothing much more than I feel after a marathon, surprisingly! :)
