One cool thing about this race was the fact that it is run in seven loops (the first six are 15.4 miles each and the last lap is 9 miles). My sister and official crew photographer had a great idea: she took a picture of how I looked after each lap. Crazy bug eyes are apparent in all pictures, though I look noticeably more like a zombie after 29 hours of running on lap seven. Here is the progression of my 100 miler:
Lap One (mile 15.4)
Lap Two (mile 30.8)
Lap Three (mile 46.2)
Lap Four (mile 61.6)
Lap Five (mile 77)
Lap Six (mile 92.4)
Lap Seven (mile 101.4)
Notice the cheese sandwich on my knee. That thing didn't stay in my stomach for too long after I ate it. Grrrross.
I think you look awesome in all the pics! For running 100 miles, you look amazing! Way to go!
ReplyDeleteYou still look fresh and ready to kick some butt even in the last photo! #2 is my favorite though:)
ReplyDeleteI like the night ones the best because you have this stunned "Why am I awake??" look in addition to being tired from running tons of miles. :P
ReplyDeleteHaha, clearly you are crazy! The lap pictures are a great idea. My 50-mile event is a lap race, but I don't think I'll have a personal photographer all day.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad to see that you changed your clothes. :D ha ha looking good all the way through.
ReplyDeleteYou look pretty darn good and happy for 100 miles! A picture every lap was a great idea.
ReplyDeletei love that in lap you are just happy to be attempting this, lap 2 shows a little more realism. laps 5 and 6- you are trying to look happy, but you are looking pretty beat. and lap 7 shows the sheer joy of your accomplishment. way to go!
ReplyDeleteOh man, crazy to see that progression! I would not be so smiley, I can promise you that!
ReplyDelete:)
Those pictures are AWESOME. How is it that you look more and more excited after each loop? Or is it more and more crazy??? :).
ReplyDeleteGreat idea on taking a picture every lap! You definitely start to look more tired every lap, the pictures at night show your eyes starting to fade a bit. Great stuff!
ReplyDeleteThose pics are fantastic. I can't believe you ran 100 miles. That is amazing!
ReplyDeleteThose pictures are awesome!! How fun is that to have the lap by lap photos!
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures. I think by lap 7 I would be giving the camera the finger. You seemed happy the whole way through!!!
ReplyDeleteYou look really good for running 100 miles, better than I would look just staying up for 29 hours straight :-).
ReplyDeleteYou look just as refreshed after lap 7 as you do lap 1! Aweseome - thanks for sharing. And that cheese sandwich.... yuck. I couldn't even get a cracker down at that point.

I love the pics, you're smiling in all of them and that says a lot! Loving those loops makes it all worth while. I'm still trying to understand 100 miles! :)
ReplyDeletehahaha. love this! what a great idea to document your journey. thought it would be so easy to pick my fave but i guess i would go with 3 or 7 ;)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! Though you don't show the wear and tear much!
