Ran the Guts Fat A$$ 50K yesterday.  It was nice to start another GUTS race.  It has been a couple of years since I've been to one.  Ran the first three laps with JG.  It was very nice to have someone to run with.  

Unfortunately I was a half a$$ and didn't go out for the last two laps.  I wasn't mentally or physically prepared for 34 miles.  Plus, I didn't want to trash my training for the next week or more just to finish this race.   I am hobbling around on my foot enough after doing the 20 miles. I'd hate to see myself if I'd finished.  This is my first DNF which sucks but it is what it is.  

I really wish I was able to run today.  Maybe tomorrow.

very short for time so this was a little faster  - felt good to run a little faster for once.
