Lake Michigan, that is. When we decided to train (I say "train" loosely since it was a month before the event) for the 100k Mad City Ultra we somehow missed looking at the roster. As of today 27 people, wait...professionals, have signed up for this race. It is the 100k National Championships. Now, it's not like I plan to win or even place at these events. However, I don't really want to be 5 feet in front of the sag wagon. Also, we started realy thinking about Elissa and I driving home from Wisconsin after running further than we have ever ran. Lots of "what if's"....sickness, injury, exhaustion, would not make it easy for us to jump in the car and get back to mom world.
So....we are going back to Lake Michigan, the windy city, where I swore after the 50 miler I would never return. It is the same course as the 50 miler just shorter.
50k = 32 miles! So we are heading back to Chicago this weekend, with girls in tow, to the Lakefront 50/50.
But not too worry.....we have plans for 60++ miles in June!
