 Run
Comments: this was a training run for the sunmart fiddy so i started off doing a walk/run, walking for a few minutes at the aid stations but had to walk for 30+ minutes at mile 24ish because my vision was going, reached an aid station, loaded up on food and felt 100% better. then i continued the walk/run thing. ended up walking just over an hour total, and still kept a sub 10 min pace. yay me. felt real good except for the nutrition bonk. i usually eat a pb&j sandwich at most, if not all, aid stations and they didn't have that available so i didn't get the calories that i generally do during ultras. :( other than that it was a good run. What would you do differently?: supply my own pb&j and not bonk. i would also bring friends, running with fit and Q during these long races is WAY MORE fun than by myself.  Post race
Warm down: put on another layer of clothing and drank hot cocoa. What limited your ability to perform faster: the frigid weather and the lack of peanut butter and jelly. Event comments: i'll be back to try and PR again. this was a PR by more than an hour. yay me. Last updated: 2006-11-11 12:00 AM

Queen BTich 12411 , | Subject: RE: chicago lakefront 50/50 ultramarathon Yay hot stuff! Great job Trix and be careful with the food. You have no fat on your body so you need to eat whatever they have! You're going to kick so much butt at Sunmart with Jeff and Fit. |

Elite 2515 Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea | Subject: RE: chicago lakefront 50/50 ultramarathon You bonk and you can still go <10 min/miles? Dayum! Great race Trix. But I can't imagine why it'd be more fun to run with Fit and Q. They seem like such bores... |

Expert 686 Lake Geneva | Subject: RE: chicago lakefront 50/50 ultramarathon Great Job! I used to live in Chicago. Where is the start/course/turnaround? I used to run along that path every morning (well, within reason, December-February were pretty much out) Loved watching the sun come up over the lake. |
