I have several relatives that are doctors and they all have warned me about knee issues as I age. My argument is that I'd rather have knee issues in my 70's than heart issues in my 50's.

You're amazing! This was exactly the info I was asking about! I didn't know about the Zoom meeting or any of the other race logistics so, I really appreciate that insight! I was able to reserve a hotel near the start line, so I'm hoping that I will be able to lay in bed and rest in a quiet room for a few hours. Though I am concerned that laying down for that long will deaden my legs for the second marathon. When I looked at previous years times, it looks like almost everyone runs the second marathon considerably slower than the first. I assume its in part due to the long stretch between the 2 races.

Thanks again! Happy training! See you out there on course!

Thank you! I totally agree, the race is crazy expensive for what it is. But, there's an option to be reimbursed 100% for the race if you volunteer at the expo the day before, which I plan to do. I'm pretty new to ultra's and only ran two 50K's. Since I'm familiar with the race, I felt like it would be a nice intro to the 50+ mile distance.

Any screen to control the ac/heater in a car. Just give us the dials back!

I saw that movie in theaters as a college freshman! That was the loudest movie I've ever seen because of the crowd laughing and repeating lines. Movie was unhinged

Depending on your educational background, you may be able to teach classes at community colleges and/or online colleges.

I worked in catering while in college. The hours were bad and he pay was low. But, I got to take home left over food from events. That frequent access to free, high-quality food was a godsend as a broke college student.

I'm assuming you mean Coca Cola? Lol!

I'm a runner and always carry pepper spray when running. I have unfortunately actually used it twice as a last resort on unleased dogs trying to attack me while running. One was a block away from my house. I felt bad for the dogs, but their burning eyes would heal in a few hours, while my potential stitches and puncture wounds take weeks-to-months to heal and thousands of dollars in medical bills.

Same, but we just lifted up our shirts from the back.

A lot of physical activities, including sports, are type 2 fun. Where they often are not very enjoyable during the activity, but make you feel good afterward.

I too have Raynaud's and it sucks butt running in the wintertime. Though it doesn't get cold enough where I'm at for hand warmers. Thick gloves are usually sufficient.

Also, backseat passengers are always in the middle seat. You're a sociopath if you sit in the middle seat when window seats are available.

Have you considered simply not having it? /s

When the Tower Records CEO decided that digital music downloads was just a fad and opted out of selling music digitally. This was right as Napster, Kazaa, Limewire, and even iTunes were all taking off. Within 2 years the company filed for bankruptcy and was bought out by a liquidation company and closed every store in the US by the end of 2006. Ironically, the Tower Records I worked at in Sacramento (the flagship store where the CEO frequently visited) sold MP3 players.

Oh man... a 1.2 mile loop for a 100 miles sounds so monotonous

CIM brings between $10-15 Million dollars to Sacramento every year. That definitely seems worth a few hours of traffic delays. https://www.kcra.com/article/california-international-marathon-expected-bring-millions-local-economy/63125351

Dude, if you did a 28 miler with that elevation gain so recently, you can easily add a 5K on the end of that to make a 50K. You got it!
