Boom! This race has a real shotgun start.

I used the same fueling strategy and equipment that I did for the Stump Jump, including my Topo Terraventure 2 shoes which I love. Without the elevation and stairs to deal with, I intended to run the entire race. With the exception of a few stops to refill water bottles, etc. I succeeded at running the whole 50k distance.

I'm very happy with my 2nd male overall finish. I was hoping for about 10 minutes faster, but 4 hours 41 minutes is just fine.

To celebrate I went to Big Mill's in Gainesville, which has THE BEST chili dogs around and delicious soft serve ice cream, too...
