Report

I ran the whole trail out and back non-stop. Passed the marathon distance in 3:14 and 50K in 3:49. I took a gel every 30 minutes for a total of 8 SiS gels. I think the key for success was getting the right nutrition and finding the right pace for the distance, then pace it well. 
My wife, Christie was waiting for me at the end with a cowbell and some drinks, she is the best! This is my second FKT and also a 50K PR, a great way to finish the year just before 2020 ends!
