WausaUltra Recap - Eluding a DNF Part 1

Andrea Larson

May 11, 2021

Racing

I signed up for the WausaUltra knowing all but one racer would DNF. How better to find my limit than a race that has a nearly 100% DNF rate! Long story short, I failed (in a good way).

The Human Factor

Just as falling is a part of trail running, making a wrong turn is a reality in trail racing. I still remember the first time I made a wrong turn over 20 years ago since it still stings. And hundreds of races later, wrong turns are still a part of my races.

With the start of winter, seemingly overnight, it’s important to dress for the weather. This weekend’s Milwaukee Area Fall Frenzy Adventure Race was a great example of how preparation can make a cold day a great day!
