How To Approach an Ultra or Ironman

Jordan Rapp quote sums it up!

This Jordan Rapp quote sums it up.
"It's about the process. It doesn't matter what you do tomorrow and it doesn't matter what you did yesterday. It's about today, and making today count. That's especially true in training, but it's the same mentality that I carry into racing. Focus on the task at hand, not on the finish line, or the next part of the race, but what it is that is right there in front of you in the moment."

Harry Rosen 8K in High Park With Ben & Terri

Well we got Ben out of the basement long enough to run his first race in 2 years, the Harry Rosen 8k. This is a fund raiser for prostate cancer.An amazingly hot day, 21˚C, there is often snow this time of year.First race sporting the New Pylon Colours!( click,wait, then click again on picture for extreme close-up view of new logo)
The finisher's medals await.

Over 2700 runners and we are starting well back.

What race is complete without a bunch of running bananas?

And a guy wearing half a suit?

The happy finishers. Where's my beer? I cajoled Ben into a 50:34, and Terri ran a 57:13.

We met up with Aunt Eleanor (who lost 100lbs. a few years ago when she retired) and Uncle Bob,who ran the 5k, his second race ever.A friend of ours, Sarah (Hunter) Nagy,whom we have known since she was a little girl, won the women's 5k in 18:31.Wow!
