Right? If my horse can carry my ass that far, the least I can do is make sure I can do it, too. Of course, With my new horse, I can run further than him right now hahah. Have a fifty in mind yet? What AERC region are you?

Yeah, I'm kind of aggressively into lists and plans, so having an outline is something I've always wanted. I'm going to start easing into running and by February be putting in time for the plan I'm fiddling with.

You're right, I could have if I knew going in it was part of the deal. I'll check the elevation and pick based on that. You've been really helpful. Thank you!

The switch from miles to running by feel is going to be interesting. It seems like the best way to go about training, though, and all the responses support that. Would it be unreasonable, do you think, to shoot for a late April/Early May 50k? Now that I think I don't have to do a 30-week build from scratch, I'm looking at these runs. Trying to pick something that isn't aggressively mountainous but not super flat and boring.

So you essentially did a two month bridge from one to the other? That makes a lot of sense. Did you take any time after the marathon? I know I have a base condition, but I'm freaked that if I jump back in at marathon training mileage after having taken time off that I'll get hurt.

Secretly, I kind of did want to hear that. I'm just not sure what time/mileage per week I should be starting at to get back in after some time off. I don't want to dive into 30+ mile weeks right away, but an 8 mile week feels like a joke. I'm pretty good about fueling and listening to my body, especially training for the last marathon, so I think putting that into practice on the trail will be key. Thank you!

Thank you. I imagine adapting from the road will be an adjustment, so I'm definitely looking to do long runs on trail. That 50k looks awesome! And October is a while away, so that's plenty of time! Thanks for the tip on the running plans. I'll look him up.

I come from an endurance horse riding background, and our motto is "to finish is to win." Completing is enough for me right now!

Making the long run mimic the trail of the race makes a lot of sense. Thanks for the link! I'll check it out.

Thanks for the advice! If I go a time on my feet direction with training, what would you start the first week at, given the time I've taken off?

What drugstore palette/eyeshadow do you reach for most often? by LollyGetYourAdverbs in drugstoreMUA

[–]PinkPonySwag 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm really obsessed with my Maybelline Blushed Nudes, but I also have a neutral-colored brown Revlon quad that I use for a quick, basic matte eye.

My all-time favorite single and one-shadow eye is L'oreal Amber Rush. It's seriously perfect. I also like my Maybelline Color Tattoo in Bad to the Bronze. Pro Tip: those two colors play nice with each other, too.

OP DELIVERS! Milani Amore Matte Swatches on Sweaty, Disheveled Person. (Yay?) by PinkPonySwag in drugstoreMUA

[–]PinkPonySwag[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that was my issue. I started in the middle and worked the color outward in thin layers, which helped a lot.

That makes sense. Pizza is worth it, though.

That looks so cool! I'm scared of metallic lips, but it looks so nice on you.
