#60th Ultra Marathon Completed!!!

 Hi again!  Well, I'm now 60% finished with my task of completing 100 Ultras by the time I'm 100!  It feels very rewarding and I want to thank everyone who's helped me with this task so far!  I appreciate all the help - physically and mentally!

Yesterday I just went out and accomplished 30 miles on basically the 50 Year trail in Tucson.  I did a couple "out and backs" sort of speak - using my car as an aid station to stash extra water and food.  I did the run in approximately 8 hours 22 minutes.  I got super tired around 22 miles but for the next 8, I actually felt stronger as I went!  I had a lovely day - all day - beautiful weather near 70 degrees too.  Lori and the dog came out to greet me at the finish which was so wonderful.  Thank you Lori so much!!!

As soon as we all got home I took a shower and headed for the hot tub which was so super!  This feels so good after all day on the trail!  Loved it!

Here are some pics of the area where I was running!  So wonderful!

Thank you all for the support.
