My First Post

Ok.. lets get this started, On December 2nd 2006 I was sitting at in Placer High school cafeteria at the Western States 100M lottery, waiting to see if I got in. It was a good day.. my name was called. Now the training has started, it actually started the next day when I ran CIM to celebrate.

I finished off the year with 2 more 50k's and a few long runs in the trails. Including 12 miles on the WS trail.

CIM was my 16th marathon since I started running 5 years ago, this year I started Ultras and completed 2 50Milers, a 64K, 3 50Ks.

My offical training started yesterday, Doing the Cal Loop New Years Day run with a few good trail running friends. This was another 15miles on the WS Trail, and 3 mile jog hike back up the hill for breakfast. It was a great day, perfect weather, good friends and a breakfast that made it all worthwile.

Just for fun I deciced to end and start the year running, Starting a little before midnight on new years eve I ran 6k, about 2 miles before midnight and 1.7 miles after midnight.

So my total milage for 2007 is now 19.7 mi.
