Thursday, February 17, 2011. It has been two weeks since Orcas 50k and I am off on a plane tomorrow morning to Austin for a marathon so I suppose it is time to do a little Orcas recap! James knows how to put on a race! It actually feels more like a party. Good friends, beautiful trails, delicious food and drinks, and a few little hills thrown in just for the heck of it! It is a perfect season opener! I hope to see you at Austin, Ill be at mile 23 cheering on! February 18, 2011 at 7:32 AM.

Sean and Sascha's Adventures: February 2010
http://sascharuns.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Sean and Sascha's Adventures. Wednesday, February 24, 2010. Hagg Lake 25 km. After running the Hagg Lake. I carpooled to Hagg with Bend fast-guys Andy Martin. And fellow Montrailian Max King. But I was happy to be sportin' my pink Orcas Island 50k. Vest for the out and back in support of 25k'er Mandy Giblin. That's me navigating a creek crossing that eliminated a road section from previous years - a very cool improvement! Upon seeing me, Aaron noticably picked up his pace, which was great as it gave me s...

Linda Barton: February 2011
http://lindabear78.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Endurance Runner, Endurance Reader. Sunday, February 13, 2011. This last weekend was Orcas 50K and 25K. Which is by far my most favorite event of the year. Thanks to James Varner and Rainshadow Running. About 500 runners get together for socializing, eating, beer, a bonfire, fashion selecting and a bit of running. It was a great chance to see many people and show off my new HURT. Belt buckle. People congratulated me, but they were also upset on my behalf. In my last post. It was a difficult choice to make.

Tales from a mid-pack runner - the quest for speed: November 2010
http://sonjayli-kahilarace.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Tales from a mid-pack runner - the quest for speed. Friday, November 26, 2010. Bear Mountain 10 km. November 20, 2010. I started feeling better as we made our way through the climb, and soon I started passing people. My overall desire to do well kicked in, as I passed a few of the women who were ahead of me. I started to feel strong and stayed strong throughout the rest of the race. After a long cool-down run, Shane. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Bear Mountain 10 km.

Tales from a mid-pack runner - the quest for speed. Friday, November 18, 2011. November 11, 2011. I'm writing this a bit out of order, as prior to this race I competed in the Shawnigan Kinsol half-marathon at the end of October. But, as that will take longer to write up, I thought I'd start with a quick entry about the Thetis Relay. I joined the start line with the other eager racers - quite uncertain of how the 5 km loop would go. I had felt pretty tired during my warm-up and feared that this would ...

Tales from a mid-pack runner - the quest for speed. Wednesday, January 26, 2011. January 9, 2011. We were now headed towards the mid-way point, as we climbed and descended a few rolling hills back towards Wallace Drive. I had expected to reach the mid-way point at 17 minutes (I'd slightly miscalculated), but heard a local PIH-er yell out 'Good Job Sonja, 15:43'. I couldn't believe what I'd heard. Both myself and the guy who was running beside me exclaimed 'Really? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). My key passi...
