Sunday was the VT 50, one of two ultra marathons (the VT 100 being the other) that we have within a ten minute drive of our house. I can not imagine that there are too many folks that can say that for themselves and almost felt obligated to participate. Combine absolutely perfect weather, stunning scenery, and a network of excellent trails and you have a recipe for a great day to run 50K. I also had the benefit of running with my coworker Bethany, an experienced and accomplished ultra runner. Without her company, it definitely would have been a much tougher day. We certainly did not light the course on fire but it was very enjoyable, nonetheless. It was also quite delightful to see Teresa at the last aid station located at mile 29 where she was a volunteer.
