I RAN 100 MILES...AGAIN | race recap, lessons learned

Sit for a backyard chat with me, as I recap my second 100 miler at the Javelina Jundred! I finish the video with some good takeaways for anyone considering the challenge of 100 miles.

    I never leave comments but I am running 24 h race in half a year. Had a bad run today so doing some indoor bike and looked up this word on KZread. Came across your video from like 2 years ago and before committing to it decided to check if you are still active. Now I’m here 😂

    I'm so glad you did this recap video, well done and great points! Awesome accomplishment for sure and happy your recovery has gone well. I saw in the Javelina results that Gene Dykes finished the 100 miler, I think he's around 75 years old. Amazing! I'm a decade younger than him and the two of you really inspire me to put one foot in front of the other, despite dealing with chronic health stuff. Thank you 🙏🏃‍♀️💪

    I logged in on the live stream a couple of times and followed along with you throughout the race, I managed to check just as you were finishing! It looked brutal at best, dry desert, cacti, rocks,...! But the aidstations really did seem well organized and the finishline surrounded by those party tents was just amazing to watch (drone footage) A huge amount of respect for you to complete this and as you say, you really need to do this because you want to, not to please somebody else. In regards to the headlamp, we run with a type of chest-band lamp, perhaps that could help you with the disoriented feeling a headlamp gives you. Well done you! And thank you for this recap, I was looking forward to hearing your experiences through this desert run!

    Congratulations on your 2nd 100 miler! I've never done a 100 miler, most I'm sticking to are 50K. I've actually got my RVA marathon tomorrow then my 50K in Farmville,VA. I agree nutrition is key and that's been the biggest game changer for me. Keep doing all the amazing things you are doing in life!

    Yes, my initial thoughts are always, "wow, 100 miles is crazy", then I'm eager to watch the Coach Holly documentary on how she did it, but not only how she did it, but the results of her self described: This is an amazing accomplishment, the mental toughness and discipline to get you through the race, and even the added 15 lbs of muscle that gives you the physical prowess to come out of this race, in good shape, and with a fast recovery. Awesomeness, I just watched the "tapering vlog" before this one, and commented how: "your eyes are really blue, and clear, and you look really healthy". Now I see that I wasn't wrong with that assessment. Have a fantastic weekend Coach Holly.

    Awesome race and video you just did. 🎖☀ i would like to share my game changer about foot care, it is Xoskin xotoes 5.0 toe socks, since i wear those on my long runs and race, there is no coming back ever with normal socks during something longer than 21k. 3 years and zero issues i just forgot about my feet prep other than if crazy wet condition ill apply shea butter slightly on areas of my feet and ankles that are subject to be sensitive according of the pair of shoes i wear that day. i wish for you the same. 🤝💕☀

    Amazing work! I am so inspired ❤ I also get vertigo from using a headlamp so I now have a waist light instead. For blisters and chafe, I know someone who swears by silicon-based sex lube. It’s designed to not degrade in hot, sweaty, frictiony conditions. I’ve never tried it but mb it’s worth giving a go!
