BRC Ultra Border Crawl VIII – 10/14 – 6:00AM – 36.9 Miles of Everything

Didn’t Go Well

Hey. S’up? Wanna go for a run? First a quick recap. This is the eight edition of the BRC UBC. Fifteen Members have completed the Crawl including three two-time offenders. Three ladies have completed it proving there is no gender requirement for crazy. In other words, there is absolutely no reason you can’t complete it this year. But then there’s this. The last time we ran the Ultra in this direction back in 2013, nobody finished. It is the only year that happened. I know, weird, huh?

It’s All About The Snacks

You wanna know how to run 36.9 miles? Calories. No, seriously. Pringles, PBJs, beef jerky, Chips A’hoy. And so much more. All you can eat. All you can run. So now you know.

Yeah, Actually You Can

Sure, you have to wake up 45 minutes earlier. You have to run a little bit longer. And there’s all that border touching. Still, take all those lame excuses rattling around in your head right now and dismiss them. What’s the worst that could happen? See what I mean? Why wouldn’t you do this?

Be The First

As mentioned before, nobody has complete the UBC in this direction. Make it yours. Own it. The weather forecast is perfect. Ice cold beer at the finish. You’ll hate yourself if you don’t do it.

The Front Nine

We go north first in a roughly counterclockwise manner. Five borders, most of the miles, you get most of the work done early.

The Back Nine

Then we hit the south loop, also counterclockwisely. Only three border. Four fewer miles. It’s easy. Trust me.
