DNF @ The Woodside Ramble 50k


Woodside Ramble 50k results
What a terrible feeling this business of quiting brings. I did what I had to do but REALLY wish I could have hung on. I looked forward to this race for several months knowing it was going to be;
1) in my back yard on trails I'm familiar with
2) easy to get to, so sleeping in is a possibility
3) the least amount of elevation gain of any of the previous ultras I have done by about 1000' ft.
 With all of this in my favor I really thought a sub 7 hour time was possible. To do this I would need to run at least 1:15 per mile faster than previous efforts.
