Lots of great coverage of the North Face Endurance Challenge 50 miler are up at http://www.irunfar.com/. It appears that some of the contenders have opted out due to injury. As I told my high school coach Pat Foley earlier in the week, 50% of people either don't make it to the starting line, get there significantly over- or under-trained, or end up racing stupidly and taking themselves out of the game. My aim is to not be among that 50% (or whatever percent it actually is...), and then to challenge myself over the second half of the course. Let the chips fall where they may.
For those interested, Twitter updates will be posted tomorrow during the race at irunfar.com.
I stayed with my bro last night in Napa, and just enjoyed a delicious banana pecan pancake. Had a nice easy jog this morning -- it's nice not thinking about wind-chill! I'll be heading down to Marin soon, settling in early I hope, as the shuttle to the start loads between 3:00 and 3:20 a.m.
