Ok, seriously. Considering my
last post was the 2014 Psycho Wyco, I really do need to start contributing more
to the blog. That is; if I can find it. For a minute it looked like a visit to
the Way Back Machine would be needed. I’ve had plenty of adventures between
Psychos, I just haven’t blogged any of them. (Hmmm, if it’s not on the
internet, did it really happen)?
For my 44th Ultra,
I returned to the same race as the 1st and there’s a good reason for that. Bad
Ben Holmes and the KC Trail Nerds have a classic on their hands. The weather,
the terrain, and the late winter date all conspire to make it one of the
toughest 50K’s in the "flat" space between the Appalachians & the Rockies. Throw
in the best volunteers around and some great swag and I just can’t stay away (I
think my entire wardrobe consists of clothes with the word “psycho” on them…kind
of weird considering I work in Mental Health).
So, to avoid renaming my blog
“PsychoWycoFrameofMind”, I will simply post a picture-report below. Thanks once
again to Bad Ben Holmes, The KC Trail Nerds, and all of the best volunteers in
the sport for making Psycho happen. Special thanks to Rick & Kristi Mayo of
Mile90 photography for the pictures that you
are two sentences away from enjoying (or at least viewing).
Next up, I swear on the
shallow graves of the whiners scattered along the Psycho Wyco course that I
will follow up with another post within one week of this race report (thinking
maybe a ‘Trail of the Week’ about a seldom used trail that I’ve been hitting).
Picture Time!!
