Mid-State Mile - It's Only A Mile
Welcome to Franklin, TN home of the new 1 mile race with crazy elevation known as the Mid-State Mile. To start the morning off right Mike and I get to the event an hour and half before the start to set up our area and make sure we are not rushed. We hauled stuff over to the start/ finish line or better known as the runner starting corral area. As we finish setting up our small section we are talking with a few of the other runners and one them was Doug and he asked me what our goal was. I said we want to hit 100 miles and he looked at me like I was crazy and said have you been on the course? I said "no." Doug said, "it has some really big hills. 100 miles is going to be hard to get." I looked at Mike and said "oh well that may change things." Mike's dad has arrived and is setting up. He is our 1 man crew that amazing takes care of both of us while we run. He is like a moving Costco. He has everything! Or maybe...
