More on Training Races

Over the last week of posts I have talked about my long training races leading up to my 100 miler in September.  How they would be ways to get in my long runs with built in support.  But another purpose will be to measure where I am in my training and to check my level of fitness at each juncture.  I also plan on enjoying the company of running with others.  I have found that ultra runners are such great people, that you can't help but have a good time when you are around them.  This should be a nice change of pace since most of my training will most likely be solo.
