I know how much I hate the .2 at the end of the marathon, I can't imagine how much I will enjoy it at the end of 50 miles. Le sigh.

.2
As I was working obessesing about JFK, I came across a fact unknown to me: the JFK 50-miler is actually 50.2 miles in distance. Really??? We are going to run 50 miles and then have to tack on an extra .2 for shits and giggles?

What?!?! That's it. I did not sign up for THAT! Ha. I'm pretty sure I will be so delirious/numb at the 50 mile point, I won't know the difference.
ReplyDeleteHaha, I saw that the day after I signed up. I bet if you don't run the tangents or forget to pause your Garmin when you dash into the woods for a pee break, you might even hit 51 miles. :)
ReplyDeleteWell you just might be giggling out of delirium that last .2...seems so odd to have that extra .2......
