BT 50K 2008

I'm fueled ready to go. I won't go as far as to say I trained my best for this race. I had some weeks in my training I didn't give my all. I am ready to run a 50K. I'm wearing my new PURE FUEL TECH T-SHIRT (You can buy one at PURE FUEL). Yes I'm wearing my Sherpa pack equipped with 2 fuel bottles, two packs for PURE FUEL BARS & Gels. and one for my empty packaging. Great weather not to cold, no wind, no snow. The ground was really hard. Really hard on my legs after awhile. I was out to run & have fun....Yelling at Bob Clark & Lindsy..."I'm going to catch up to you guy!!" She's not called E-Speed for nothing...I was razzing Elizabeth to catch up to me AND she did!!! E-Speed & her friend pasted me and kept on going. (I know I shouldn't give her my last PURE FUEL ENERGY BAR) Great job ladies!!!
Other runners I need to congratulate:
Wyatt Hornsby 1st. Place
Dave Peterman
Nick Billock
Greg Dykes
Bob Clark & his trusty side-kick Lindsey (Guys nice super hero costumes)

Nice job, Bill! those chocolate and Peanutbutter Pure Fuel bars at the aid stations really hit the spot! I already ate the Blue Blaze in the race packet, I just couldn't wait.

Happy Birthday, Bill!

Congrats on a great race. Ended being a great day. This was my first race where I started the day with Pure Fuel Bars. Think I gots me a new pre-race ritual (not that I am superstious or something...HA!)
