There is, I believe, a 30 hour limit. This of course means running/jogging/walking during the night with several headlamps. <BR/><BR/>The race starts at 4 am and goes until 10 am the following day....so it should be interesting. <BR/><BR/>as far as training. Well, im following my marathon schedule now until my race in mid-may. from there, I'll continue weekly running and step up to an easy 50 miler in late June. Then, Run the 100 miler in July. There's a very good chance I won't finish, but it will still be an adventure!Lakewoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12938008753635063175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1245249781884723223.post-43464791623356365792009-03-17T09:27:00.000-04:002009-03-17T09:27:00.000-04:00Hey Lakewood,You should retitle your post..."My 2...Hey Lakewood,<BR/><BR/>You should retitle your post...<BR/><BR/>"My 2009 Milestone (and 2008 Recap)...and "Yes, I am crazy!"<BR/><BR/>I can't imagine running 100 miles at one time! If my math is right.. that would be like running for 16.6 hours straight if you ran a 10 min mile pace! So you would have to start at like 5 am and run till about 9:30 at night! WOW! <BR/><BR/>Well just writing about it though sort of peaks my curiousity if I could actually do it! Though first I want to run a marathon. I am doing (2) 1/2 marathons on consecutive weekends this spring, so maybe a full marathon in the fall. <BR/><BR/>Anyhoo...good luck with the 100 miler. I will definetly be waiting to see how it goes! BTW...how do you go about training for that!<BR/><BR/>Peace,<BR/>ShepherdJeremiahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15925623218734731549noreply@blogger.com
