Grant and I headed to Owen Sound Y again today. 4-6 hour objective but I really wanted to get it to 50K and thats exactly what we did.
Did 6 bottles of water , 6 Gels, 8 S Caps , a handful of Gummy Worms and a few handfuls of Almonds/Cashews and some other nuts. Felt like I did everything about right as it never felt like the wheels were coming off.
Nailed the first 40K at a solid 6:00 pace as planned. I didn't need to but I decided to make things interesting and walked 2K to before picking up the pace. The feet were a wee bit sore and the when I started moving again they were allot better. Again I didn't need to but I decided to gear down to a 7:30 pace until the 48.5K mark then finish the last 1.5K walking. I really enjoyed the slower pace. I couldn't stop grinning and was totally into my music ... magical moments on the 166 meter track for sure. Walked off the last 1.5K calling it a day after doing 300 laps.
Had a really cool salt stain on my shirt ...
Blue Day 3

Fresh snow and sun brought allot of folks to the hill today. It was busy
so I didn't get a whole lotta runs in.
