Ultra Marathon at Sea- Carnival Valor 50K

On February 24th, 2012 I was blessed enough to be aboard the Carnival Valor just hours after leaving Aruba I started running an Ultra Marathon at Sea.  The winds were 20 MPH, and we were traveling 19 Knots.  The waves were the roughest they had been all week.  I started at 4:04am  and ran 279 laps around the 1/9th of a Mile 197 yard track.  It took me 5 hours, 44 Minutes and 35 Seconds to complete the distance.
