17. Hundred 4 Owl Hollow

+ Follow Blog
Description I am a 62-year-old wife, mom, and grandma who has a passion for trail running. I took up running at 42 years old, and ran my first ultramarathon, FlatRock 50K, at the age of 51. There is something addictive about seeing just how far your legs will take you. After my first 50-mile race, I insisted I would NEVER run 100 miles, but of course, the idea grew on me. Running ultramarathons is kind of like natural childbirth. Your body is pushed beyond what you thought possible and it hurts but you soon forget the pain and just remember the deep satisfaction of crossing the finish line.MORE Domain Authority 9 Get Email Contact Read Now
