Well, I am flying to Sacramento from NY on Friday for the Western States training run. Yikes. The first day is 31 miles, the second is 19 and the third is 20. Double yikes. Back in December, when I signed up, it seemed like a good idea....Now I am worried!!!

First, it is hot there and we have not had any temps over 50 in a month, in fact, it was predicted to snow here today! I think I will be ok with the altitude, as I ran several miles of the trail last summer and felt ok. The camping out might get me, though!! All I have to do to make the cut offs is average 18 min miles----even in the canyons I think I can do that if I can roll along downhill and not break an ankle!

Anyone else from here crazy enough to be signed up?

Any words of wisdom?
