50 milers should come with a warning, it’s a world apart from the 50k and marathon distances. Back of the pack is a tough situation...it’s not even about a bad time, you might not finish the race - a DNF. Somehow you have to dig deeper than ever before to find the strength to keep going. Ultra-marathons are definitely 100% mental. I saw the 50 milers go off, volunteered till 2 pm, saw my friends come in and then cheered the last finishers. I decided to take some pictures in hopes of capturing some of the emotions at the finish line.
