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.

TNF EC 50 Mile follow up

Sage Canaday of Team Scott

Just a quick note to bring my writing on the TNF 50 full circle. Sage Canaday was in fact in first place but only by error. He took a wrong turn and a few others followed him. He got it figured out. Tried to make up the mistake. Slipped and fell multiple times and eventually DNFed. Read the whole story for yourself on Sage's blog.

See you in the woods, Jonathan
