Coyote Two Moon

I want to run 100 miles. Let's see the furthest I have ever ran is 16 miles. But, I want to do 100. My favorite place in the whole world (well, what I have seen of it) to run is Horn Canyon. I swear, I feel like I am in child's pose whenever I am up there....just so at home and at ease. I love love love to run that trail. Like I could marry that trail!

I went to buy a new pair of running shoes and the lady who worked there told me about a run she was doing called the Coyote Two Moon in the Los Padres National Forest. It is 100 miles and starts and ends at Horn Canyon. The 2010 race was this weekend. They start at 6pm on Friday and run until about 10am on Sunday (today), hence the two moons: ) I could not sleep the last couple of nights thinking about people running in the dark, in the rain and possibly in the snow. I am fascinated and I want to do it BAD!!! I am going to do it in 2011!!

Okay, yes, I do need to be realistic : ) There is a difference of 84 miles between the Coyote Two Moon and my heavy pavement pounding knee jerking 16 mile run. I completely lack skill, form and gracefulness, but I have a new pair of shoes and I am going to try!
