The virtual spine is a challenge to run (or walk) one of these distances during the month of January (so spread over the month not in one go), 26.8 miles, 43 miles, 108 miles , 160 miles, 268 miles.
My husband is an ultra marathon runner and is signing up for the 160 to help with his training and suggested I challenge myself to do the 43. But I was thinking that wouldn't be too challenge and thought I could do the 108. My husband laughed ! And said I am not appreciating how hard that would be.
I started c2k5 in the summer and now do 5k 3 times a week, all be it slowly and often with a minute walk in the middle.
I am 3 stone over weight, with sore knees and hips after runs. And was planning on doing some strength training to help with this.
I do have the time as my kids are teenagers. However I am peri menopausal and sometimes lacking in energy from hot sweats disturbing my sleep.
Am I being delusional to think i could do the 108 miles?
