Choo Choo!

The Ghost Train is leaving in the morning!  Seems like I just got back from running the Cape Town Marathon in South Africa and the Ghost Train is already pulling into the station.

So, this year will be a little different.  Last year there was a specific mileage goal in mind.  BUT…this year we are going to see how far we can go in the full time allowed of 30 hours.  Last year I completed the 60 miles in just a few minutes more than 24 hours and I had stopped at night probably a little longer than needed because I had fallen twice in the dark.  My same Pit Crew (Erika and Cari) are back again for this year for support.

This year my goal is to keep my shoes facing down and avoid the falls and go a little longer at night before stopping to shower, eat, and nap.  

See you all at the station!

Coming back from the trails after the final lap in 2017…59.75 miles down – just 0.25 to go!
