Time Out

busy month up ahead for me, The world series of ultra running, Badwater ultra marathon is on July 14. It consist of 135 miles begining at Death Valley where temperature can reach up to the 130's and ends 8,000 ft up on Mt. Whitney.



Ive seen the documentary of Running on the Sun, it amazes me what these runners do. Call me crazy, but this is some thing I would like to try someday.

One has 48 hours to complete to recieve a belt buckle, or 60 hours to complete with out the buckle.

What this means to me:

To finish under 48 hours you must be able to run 2.8125 mph, about a 21 min mile pace.

To finish under 60 hours you must be able to run 2.25 mph, about a 27 min mile pace

The key is to train yourself to put up with the heat.
