It's one of those rare Saturdays where I don't have a long run, I don't have a race, I'm not backpacking or climbing or biking or whatever. Instead I'm at home. With a little too much unspent energy. Driving my husband and my dog insane 😂
TFW you have an awesome trail #runventure weekend, and the next day you keep looking up potential fall 💯 milers... #ultrarunner #trailrunning

Fall Feelings and Freebies! — The Restless Wild

What it’s like to recover after completing a 100 mile race? To be honest, it’s still an on-going lesson. There’s been a lot of rest. There’s been a lot of food. There’s been a lot of walking. There’s...
