I COMPLETED MY FIRST 50 MILE ULTRA. To say the least... It was crazy, challenging, and super fun.
I stared out into the early morning darkness. Thoughts of doubt, fear, and excitement were swirling in my mind. Heart numb from the cold and body feeling jittery from nerves. I was there, finally stepping into the arena... I felt alive!
Hope you enjoy my 50 Mile ultra story. Just a little running motivation if it helps. Looking forward to this new ultra running world and can't wait for the next one.

Awesome, man. So glad you put together this video about it too because, I've often wondered what in the Sam Hell makes people want to do this sort of thing! Hiking the AT though, I can certainly relate to that bone-tired feeling that makes you start to wonder if it's even possible to set one foot in front of the other for that last mile or so to get to your destination for the night. My hat is off to you!

I did the Dave Goggins 4x4x48 Challenge Nov 6-8 & added miles to equal out 2 marathons at 52 miles to raise funds for WWP. For sure was a massive mental challenge, esp on 4 hours of total sleep. I began to argue w/ myself around midnight to about 5am both nights. Worst part is that the challenge is a go stop go stop, & my calf muscles froze up at rest. I agree with you on the learning part, it sucked but I learned a lot! My last 5 miles I worse a 20lb vest & all I wanted to do was quit...once I finished I was bit by the run bug. It did so well w/ the community participating that I'm repeating it Oct 2021 & making it a 4x4x72 challenge to raise funds for WWP.
@RobPirieCedarOtaCoffee
@RobPirieCedarOtaCoffee 3 года назад
That’s so cool! I remember when they were doing that and a ton of people were participating. I think that would almost be harder because if I would of took a break 5 miles before finishing I don’t think I could of physically started back. When I got home that night I literally had to crawl up the stairs because I could not lift my legs anymore. 72!? That would be crazy!! Super cool you are doing it for a good cause to. I would like to get more involved in that. I did a good bit while I was serving for WWP but I have fell off the wagon in that area. Thanks so much for watching!

Most of us treat things as hobbies, side hustles, or fun projects but the only way to make it a success is if you get serious and think, treat and operate it as a business. Basically just take it serious. I feel most people give up or fail because it was never truly important to them. I have to get my head straight with that too.
