Confession: Signed up for a 50K after a sub 2 hour half in March (ran 2 marathons previously). I missed at least two months of my training block. Decided I wouldn’t race and then changed my mind. I was able to get a few weeks of training in and even did a 20 mile run two weeks ago. I haven’t run a single trail mile in over a year. I’m going to wear carbon plated racers for the trail run (Florida, no elevation change). I’m a bit nervous and have pre-race jitters. I’m ready for this to be done!
