...A 50 mile trail ultra marathan distance run is
close to plain nuts in its challenge and would leave me staggering to
even think about doing. I know how to get ready and do an ironman triathlon
but would really not know how to get ready for the 50 mile trail
ultra.
One of the more astounding things I've heard in my life
is when I found out that the *70 year-old wife* of the
President of the Western States Trail Foundation had
completed the 100 mile Tevis *run* from Nevada
to Auburn in under 24 hours.
Made me think there's hope for us all in our latter years.
