Yay Kacie! Way to go! Do we get a full race report, or pictures?

And Urlea, you've really got the ultra bug, huh? Amazing.

Just got home from the 27 Mile trail-run. Lots of tired, lots of hills, lots of insanely beautiful sights. It took close to 8hrs. much longer than expected, that's the most amount of hours I've ever spent running, but my buddy had some knee trouble which had us walking on & off the last 7 miles. Ran the first 8 miles in the dark w/ headlamps. Loved it. Will post pictures & hopefully some video later, right now I need a shower & sustenance. I'm as foggy as Halloween right now.

Found some energy, here's my first attempt at youtube & taping running. Forgive the poor quality and shakiness.

Way to go! Sounds like a blast!

Congrats Kacie and Urlea! Urlea, that is a really nice way to celebrate your friend's 27th! Maybe I'll ask my friends to run 42 miles for me next year! LOL.

And the views are gorgeous. It's so Fall looking!

Oak, the Cox 1/2 and Full is the first Saturday in May in Providence.

I am behind on logging (well just back from vaca and behind on everything).
I started getting in regular runs on 10/20. I ran 5 out of 7 days last week. Between 3 & 5 miles each time. VERY slow right now. Still HOT here in Florida (except for a day or two). Total week mileage 21.2
17 weeks till marathon!
Today is rest day. So I'll be out in the dark getting in my 4 miles in the morning. I'll post the fun-ness later!
