Pre-Lost Soul Ultra

Today I am in Lethbridge. Tomorrow morning I run, starting at 8:00 in the morning. Hopefully finishing by seven in the evening of the next day. I have 35 hours to do this.
I am not confident about this run. My ankle is still hurting. My toe is probably still broken. I haven’t trained enough. I am starting to come down with a cold. I have not been sleeping much since Montreal.
But the hardest part will be not using any of those as an excuse to give up. This is a hard race, and it would be very easy to just stop. But I can’t do that. If I finish this, I’ve got an Alberta Triple under my belt.
I won’t have real support, but this is a well organized ultra, so I am not that worried. My sister is in town with me, but that is so she can interview someone as part of her thesis. Then she will just stay in the hotel and work. Hopefully she will come out and see me a few times. But I am not requiring it.
