It's getting real, the Run Rabbit Run 100 mile race is approximately 48 hours away! The Run Rabbit Run one hundred mile race in Steamboat Springs Colorado begins for the 'hares' at noon. The tortoise division for the Run Rabbit Run 100 mile running race begins at 8 am at the base of Steamboat Springs ski resort, in front of the Sheraton hotel. Running one hundred miles is, in my mind, an active act of patience. The runners toeing the line for the Run Rabbit Run 100 mile race on Friday, in my opinion, must attempt to be incredibly patient. What do I mean by patience? Wait for that second half before you start pushing yourself. If you can get to 50 miles feeling ok, that's when you can begin to think about 'pushing' yourself, and possibly wait until mile 65. In order to 'push' yourself later in the Run Rabbit Run 100 mile race, you must be well fueled and well hydrated. That was the goal for today's daily vlog and story, to purchase the food and drinks that I will be eating during the Run Rabbit Run 100 mile race. Some of the items that I purchased for the Run Rabbit Run 100 mile race, include Coke, chicken stock, Luna bars, and some other trail essentials like band aids. I decided to purchase chicken stock over chicken broth because the stock has more nutrients and calories, a key component for running one hundred miles, consuming enough calories to fuel your body for 18+ hours of running and movement. Thankfully I have some experience with moving for 30+ hours in my Nolan's 14 attempts over the past three years, so running all day and into the night does not necessarily freak me out too much. On that note, I also started pulling out my gear and clothing for Run Rabbit Run 100: headlamps, half tights, water bottles, vest, gloves, hats, chafing cream, and so much more! I do like to start a race with fresh gear, meaning the gear smells good and is clean. Even though five miles into Run Rabbit Run, all the runners will be smelling, we can at least all start with fresh clothing and gear, right!?!? So yes, in today's vlog I did a big old wash load for my running hat, gloves, calf compression socks, and the Raidlight vest. I will also be packing and bringing to Steamboat Springs Colorado for the Run Rabbit Run one mile running race, my Nathan handheld waterbottles. Thankfully, today is just Tuesday, and I can continue packing on Wednesday for the Run Rabbit Run 100. I do not want to leave any stone unturned. Lastly, the crew for Run Rabbit Run 100! The crew is KEY. The crew is your life line to sanity in my opinion. The crew for a one hundred mile race is a crutch for your physical and mental needs, when you are completely broken down. I know it's going to really hurt to run one hundred miles through the Rocky Mountains. So, my crew will be there to support, and make sure my gear is in top notch shape at the aid stations along the way. Today I was able to print off all the maps and aid station information for the crew members to sort through. The course is a little confusing, but because I was able to preview the Run Rabbit Run 100 mile race two weeks ago, it makes the mental game so much easier leading up to the race in 48 hours. All in all, I feel very well prepared from a food and gear stand point for this one hundred mile race. As my old running coach use to say, the hay is in the barn, and now all we can do is rest and wait for the gun to go off at high noon on Friday. Run Rabbit Run volunteers, kudos to you for your hard work this week in preparing for the race! 🔻Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/sethdemoor 🔻 🔻 Let's Connect Below 🔻 ➡️Strava: https://www.strava.com/athletes/20320892 ➡️Twitter: https://twitter.com/SethJamesDeMoor ➡️Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sethjamesdemoor/ ➡️Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/sethjamesdemoor/ Seek beauty.
