Tomorrow will mark my first (and probably only) venture into the world of the ultra-marathon as I tackle the JFK 50.
My mantra for the day will be, "keep moving, keep smiling!" and hopefully about ten hours after leaving the start I will cross the finish line in mostly one piece.
My biggest concern right now is the weather for the race. Yahoo weather reports, "Some morning flurries with mostly sunny skies expected in the afternoon. Cold. High near 35F. Winds WNW at 15 to 25 mph." That translates into windchill temperatures of 13 at the start and 23 at the finish. That's a lot of time to be out in the cold!
So I just "keep moving, keep smiling" and hopefully hypothermia won't be an issue!
