I am so proud of Jen. She finished her first ever Ultra yesterday at the Northfork 50 race held at Buffalo Creek. 50 kilometers on a course with lots of climbing and descents and on a record breaking hot day. Jen has diligently been training and keeping a sharp focus on this event for months, slowly increasing her training mileage and getting race day nutrition and execution dialed in. To witness her come this far from struggling with Plantar Fasciitis just last year is nothing short of amazing.
I got some video footage from Jen’s great achievement that I will be putting together soon, but for now, a few pictures from yesterday.
YOU ROCK SWEETIE!
Go Itty Bitty Betty - and she did!
Still smiles and with spring in the step here a little more than half way done
Jen is happy to be done with a long brutally warm climb
Jen closing in on the finish line for her 1st ever Ultra
Yeah, she did it! Finished her 1st ever Ultra and in good form!
Chocolate milk has never tasted this good!
Happy Jen with proof that she finished the inaugural Northfork 50
