80k ultra run debut getting closer

This year has been all about running. After overreaching on my training load in spring, I finally seem to be dialing in a more sustainable training schedule. I started my summer vacation by covering 250 km across Denmark in five days (50/50 run and hike). Since then, training has been solid, and I feel ready to tackle my first official ultra: the "Thy Cold Hawaii Ultra Trail" (80 km) on September 20th. Can't wait!
I'm already buzzing with ideas for next year's adventures. I'm trying not to get ahead of myself, but the keywords are "longer," "higher," and "local".
