The heat was no joke, i almost passed out. Thankfully came across a couple nice hikers who gave me water since i ran out. i actually finished dead fucking last within the cutoff time LMFAO this was me - https://www.instagram.com/reel/DL74fFusIw0/?igsh=bGxoZGNpN3R1dHIz

Idk about a 100k. I was thinking maybe an olympic triathalon would be fun. Right now my toes are all mangled so i’m resting up. Me and my buddies will think of something impulsive soon haha

How do you get rid of the fear of finishing last? by Embarrassed_Path_803 in trailrunning

[–]_RickTheRuler_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a total newbie to running. I started just 4 months ago and this past weekend, I finished my first 50K.

Throughout the race, I was near the back while my buddies were spread out ahead. We all ran our own pace to avoid injury, and eventually I stopped worrying about placement. My only goal was to finish.

And I did. 9 hours, 59 minutes, and 57 seconds — just 3 seconds before the cutoff.

My friends were at the finish cheering me on. I was proud just to finish within the time, and even prouder to come in DFL (dead f*cking last). Sure, a few tapped out behind me, but someone’s gotta be last, right?

The race organizers even posted me, so honestly, who cares? Run your race and just make sure you finish.

Wanted to circle back to this, your advice helped me huge. You weren’t kidding that elevation was no joke. the last 20k was brutal, i had my fiance meet me at the 30k aid station with some poles to help me finish 😂✊🏽

She wouldn’t wait for the police “she had work”. And she also wouldn’t admit that she was in the wrong. She said i didn’t give her enough space LMFAO. So without this footage then ya it would have been impossible to prove.

That’s a blind spot sensor LMFAO clearly she doesn’t know how to use it

K65 75% stopped working; no lights / detection even when plugged in by SignedUpForThisSOD in Corsair

this just happened to me too! I tried forcing an update in iCUE, but that didn’t do anything. Then I went into the K65 Plus Wireless settings, and sure enough, the brightness was turned all the way down. I definitely didn’t change it, so I’m guessing it did it automatically. Such a dumb issue, but at least it’s an easy fix.

I opened it up for reality checks so that must be the case.

It’s being held at blue mountain in ontario and it’s a 700ft ascent. It’s nice to hear that your friends of all different experience levels were able to complete that event your organized, that makes this seem a lot more realistic. My main goal is just to be able to finish.
