Hoo boy...was this a tough one...not so much physically, but the weather totally kicked my ass. The wind at times was so strong and brutal that the air felt like it was being sucked out of my lungs.
Many tantrums were had, I wanted to quit running at 3 different occasions...and even decided I was going to sell my bibs. I must have been crazy for doing this.
To say it didn't go well was an understatement. I was slow, I was agonizingly frustrated.
So I've finally started telling people about my running the 50K...and true to form, the 'lowly' run peeps of mine have been super supportive. The 'elite' twats have said nothing...at all. Seriously. Not a word. They get told and they're silent. Awesome.
Never in my life have I had stronger motivation to finish this thing than I do now. I do believe the second thing that will pass through my head as I finish will be something along the lines of "suck it". The first being something along the lines of OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG...I just ran 50k...I'm awebulous
