Mad excited about @RunitFast's Littlerunner78 getting pulled off the wait list and into the prestigious Western States 100 Miler. She is first coming to run some Jackals with us this weekend.

My 12th RUTS 10 Hour race was my most favorite ever because my 15-yo son Phoenix wanted to run it with me. His longest run before was a 5K several years ago. He was so driven and focused. He ended up with 29.5 miles and inspired me to dig deep for 53 miles.

I finished the Beyond Limits Ultra (BLU) 100 Miler in 25 hours 28 min 46 sec. I struggled and battled throughout, especially at night w/ the cold and staying awake. Not the race I wanted but the training & practice I needed to get ready for Badwater in July.

I enjoyed running the beautiful Ventura Marathon yesterday. I was about 1:43 for the first half and a bit faster 1:40 for a slight negative split on the second half. I finished in 3:23:17. Solid training run.

Truly excited to be invited back to run in my 8th consecutive Badwater 135, from the Badwater basin to Mt. Whitney.

An amazing 135 miles of hell, fury, soul searching, adventure, and cleansing. Amazing memories with the most inspiring people.

Four years ago during the HURT 100 in Hawaii after the false alarm missile that was coming to blow up the island scare. We were warned about mile 9. Next hour or so in the jungle it was eerie wondering if life was about to end. Thankfully, it was a mistake.

Keira D’Amato ran a blitzing 2:19:12 at the Chevron Houston Marathon this morning to break Deena Kastor’s nearly 16-year old American Women’s Record time of 2:19:36 from the 2006 London Marathon.

Roughly around 18 miles into the Big Bear Marathon still on pace for a sub-3 at this point before the wheels came off the last 5 miles. Positive: my 3rd fastest of my 136 pure (26.2mi) marathon finishes. Finished 3:06:05.

I ran the Monster Dash 15K yesterday in Santa Monica along the boardwalk by the pier.

I had never raced a 15K (9.3mi) before so it was unchartered territory.

I finished in 1:04:05 (6:52 min/mile). Pushed past comfort zone all race.

Some only get to read about their heroes. I’ve been blessed to run with, race, and become dear friends with some of mine. Read here about one of mine that became all of the above, the great Dallas Smith (Dallas Smith): digital.tnconservationist.org/display_articl…

3rd time to do the Tupelo Marathon, first time since 2012. I had to fly back south to take care of some things & signed up to run this the day before.

Marathons are never easy, especially Tupelo.

3:37:07 (1:46/1:51), 11th oa, 1st ag
