Subject: RE: IRONMAN vs ULTRA I've done a 50 and Ironman. They were different kinds of tough in my opinion. Duringt he Ironman ( run portion ) I was gleaming because I KNEW I was going to finish, even if I walked the whole run I could make the cut off. During the ultra however, I was TERRIFIED the last 10 miles of falling ( it was dark ) and breaking an ankle. It was me and my pacer friend. There were not thousands cheering me on. I cried at the finish line of both however. Very emotional. The Ironman toom me 14 hours, 39 minutes and the 50 took me 13.5 hours. |
