Spring fever is real, and apparently it makes me bad at calendars. Somehow I managed to book two races on the same weekend — Maple Madness 5K on Saturday and Chenango Forks XV on Sunday. A hilly trail race followed by a hilly 15K road race. Back to back.

My First Ultramarathon Was A DNF
My first ultramarathon was a DNF. I thought it would be a great idea for my first ultramarathon 50K to be the 2023 Cayuga Trails 50 in Ithaca, NY. 31 miles of 6,882’ elevation gain. At the time, it was the closest ultramarathon to me at just over an hour…
My First 5K
I ran my first 5K at 31, the 2013 Binghamton Bridge Run 5K. Based on the race clock in the picture, it took about 37 minutes. I still have that shirt.
