My goal is to help you successfully run your first 50K or your first 100 miler. Most people writing about how to run ultras are really fast, and that is great if “you” are really fast. If you are a middle-of-the-pack runner like me, what I write may be more applicable and useful. After all, we are on the trail a lot longer than those “fast” runners. Most of the Posts are available on my website "Run Your First Ultra" where the posts are easier to access by subject. (Link in the right column)

Another Run for Kids Update
Amazingly, no one had donated $25 for a chance to win almost $500 worth of gift certificates from all those restaurants sponsoring the Run for Kids. So, we are making a change. We are going to make the gift certificate giveaway a Raffle.
We have almost $500 worth of $50 gift certificates to some great Birmingham restaurants. They will be given away at the Run for Kids Challenge on May 5th. We are selling raffle tickets for $5.00 each, for a chance to win $100 in gift certificates.
Anyone can purchase tickets, even non runners however you must be present at the race, at the time of the drawing to win. (That is, you must be in the vicinity of the Cedar Pavilion when we draw the winning names at about 9:30 or running on the course.)
We will draw four names from those that have purchased raffle tickets. We will place the name of each restaurant on a slip of paper and put them in a box. The four raffle winners will then draw two restaurant names out of a box and receive the gift certificates for the selected restaurants.
Raffle tickets may be purchased at Ultrasignup at registration or anytime. Use this link to purchase tickets.
Buy raffle tickets at Ultrasignup.com.
Checks may also be mailed to:
Run for Kids Challenge,
c/o David Tosch,
4697 Bridgewater Rd,
Birmingham, AL 35243.
Please do not mail cash.
Additional tickets may be purchased Friday afternoon May 4, at late registration and package pickup at Oak Mountain State Park, and Saturday morning right up until time for the drawing about 9:30 AM.
