The mindset of a champion.
❝I panicked for about five minutes before suddenly it hit me: why *couldn’t* I be the race leader? Why *shouldn’t* I be the one leading this race?

Friday night at 00:00 is the start of Grand Trail des Lacs et Châteaux 100 miles, which I am going to run.
I'll post updates here with the #GTLC hashtag. And you can follow my progress in Ferrett. -
❝“…You should see me now,” I said. “I am so tired. I am stumbling through these forests. I don’t know how many times I stubbed my toe on these rocks… . But it is so beautiful. You should see it.”

Pick a race in May, they said.
The weather will be nice, they said. -
I love this film!
So many ultra running films are about the elite, fast young.
This is about the rest of us. ❤️

An issue that confronts the would-be urban walker determined to traverse a megacity from one boundary to the other: do you outfit and equip yourself for ordinary urbanity, or for the walk?
I’m halfway minded to adopt some of the practices and tactics I use in #ultrarunning and #ultralight hiking, but by the same token poles and hydration bladders and so on stick out like a sore thumb. You want to be able to move through crowds, duck into bodegas, pet the local cats, etc.

I wish all the runners in the #Neckarcross #Ultra a fantastic day today. Enjoy it! 🙌🏻

While Rachel Entrekin was running the last mile of Cocodona 250, to win for the third time the women’s race and set a new course record, beating it by more than two and half hours, and to win for the first time the overall race, she stopped to pet dogs :)

❝Of course, I can’t do what [Kara Goucher has] done in competition […]. What I can relate to, though, are the difficulties she’s gone through and the courage she’s shown in overcoming them. And maybe — maybe? — that’s something I can replicate in my own life.

Watching Cocodona 250 on IG. It is showing really why I'm starting to love ultra trail running so much. They are all so nice to the supporters, volunteers and the other runners, really like a group of friend out and about. Good example from HardRock 100 when Courtney was setting course record, she had time to stop to talk to a fan, a small girl, while "sprinting" for the line. Though at this year's Cocodona the people who ran one aid station, after 80miles, were really mean, they didn't have the normal camping chairs, they had comfy sofas in the tent ;)

❝For so long, I’ve leaned on adventures to feel alive. Big experiences, big emotions, a big dose of doing to infuse life with meaning and purpose. […] Take away those certainties, and the hard work of living begins.

Race day anniversary. Wonder Woman at the end of a 50K Ultramarathon with a smile on her face. We love the flat course in the Francis Marion National Forest north of Charleston, SC. #ultrarunning

One of the *best* things about ultras.
❝One of the sure things about ultras is that you can never count on an outcome.
—John Maynard
https://open.substack.com/pub/runandgetit/p/everything-is-fine?r=1n6v12 -
❝– The outcome matters deeply to you
– The situation is unfamiliar or unpredictable
– You’re putting internal pressure on yourself
– Training has shifted from “want to” to “have to”
What all of these have in common: your brain has interpreted the race as a threat.

Unfortunately had to DNF at 55km because of a medical problem. Slept a few hours and then started crewing for the people who where still running. A bit disappointed because of the DNF, but really enjoyed crewing.
And I know it was the right decision to stop. #nfw100 #ultrarunning #runnersofmastodon #fryslan #friesland -

Tomorrow I’ll be at the starting line of the #nfw100, a 100-mile run through the northern Frisian forests (The Netherlands). It’s a small-scale, low-key event that I happen to organize myself, together with my friend Johannes. There will be 10 participants tomorrow. We hope to grow a bit next year, so keep an eye on the website www.nfw100.frl to register in time. Results will be published on the event website and on https://www.ultra-marathon.org #runnersofmastodon #ultrarunning #friesland #fryslân

20 days out from the Cocodona 250 and the nerves have arrived in full force….

Oof! Hearing that Ourea Events (organisers of #DragonsBackRace and #CapeWrathUltra) have gone bust, just two weeks out from #northernTraverse. Very sad. #trailRunning #ultrarunning

Morgen ist übrigens der Grunewald100. Das ist wie #bm100 nur ein bisschen leichter, weil halt in Berlin. Falls wer spontan starten will, es gibt noch exakt einen Startplatz. Schreibt Markus auf Insta an. #nevernotrunning #ultrarunning #teamlaufen

Oh 10 women in total, but who is the Lead Woman?
Barkley marathon is brilliant in the way that it annoys you with the lacking and mystical information floating around ;)
-
Ohhh and it sounds like Jasmin (not on list) is there too and Emma from Ireland (on list) and some French dudes ;)
-
Ohhh Iain and Damian are running and the rumor mill is talking about a certain Kilian might be running #BM100 #UltraRunning #BarkleyMarathon

Reading an update I gave someone, realised that saying my runner was "now coked up" could possibly be misconstrued out of context.... #ultrarunning #ukrunchat
