N89 The Great Mansfield 50K Tail Race - Saturday May 30, 2026

  Did the Mansfield race again this year.  Raj and Patrick joined me for another crack at it.   Great weather ,  fantastic course and good company summed up the day.  We we slow by design!   An hour in we had on covered 5K averaging a 12:00 pace... yes we were actually running albeit a little soo slow.    The half way cutoff was at 13:00 ,  5 hours after the race start.  At the pace we were going we were in danger of getting pulled off course.  Between 5 and 12 K we pulled some 8:00 Ks putting enough time in the bank.  Our 25K time was around 4hrs23min.   The guys were moving well the whole 50K ,  it was slow but steady so no death march.    The second half was all about getting it done.  We wrapped somewhere around 9 hours definitely my slowest 50K ever but it didn't matter.  We hung out for an hour after the race having a cold beer and talking to Robin.   On the way home we stopped at the "Burger Bus" on Airport Road that the Honeywood turn off...best burger I had in some time.
