I had the best run today. I had a really good run and I needed it. I was up at 4 am so I could make our run on time. I am really trying to do things right and today it worked today. 

I went to bed at 9pm

I woke up at 4 am 

Had a huge bowl of oatmeal at 4:15

Put everything in the car the night before so I would not have to stress the night before :)

I got dressed and was in the car by 4:30

So I had no stress driving because I had enough time. 

I decided since I have been feeling so tired on my runs to try eating other than GU.

TADA

I tried dried figs from Sprouts. I loved the energy they gave me and my tummy never felt gross. 

The most important part I ran with My favorite bunch of runners. Funny Hard working good people. (The Trail crashers )

So this combination worked for me and in total I had an 80 mile week that ended with a great run… 

The great thing is I have been having a really hard time keeping up and feeling exhausted during my runs. A part of me has been feeling man I suck at this but not today :)
Today I ran 26 miles on the PCT and it was great ,beautiful and all those things that help you have a wonderful run. I am going to cross my fingers that next week goes like today. Happy Trails and guess what 48 day and 8 hours until the San Diego 100.
I am doing the excited dance over hear peeps.
