You did very well because I am sure that you had set a tough personal time… hehe
I have been thinking and if I have to choose between a marathon and a ultra, I will definitely choose an ultra… hehe
I recognize that both experiences are different and are part of a runner’s life at certain point. Even once in a lifetime, right?
Wishing you a good training. Be careful with your IT Band, ok? My massage therapist is always reminding me of posture and shoulders open while running, it affects our hips and knees. I have been paying more attention to it, and it’s helping my runner’s knee. No more knee tapping, so far.
