I realize this was like a year ago…but I just read through it as I’m planning on my own 50miler in 2011 or 2012.
Your post was very helpful, especially explaining all the details…it’s tremendous to get to stand on your shoulders.
I ran my first 1/2 in 2010…and will do my first marathon here in 2011. I was planning to train for a 50 miler in 2011…but recently had to let my running coach go for a few months. (Stu Mittleman – whom I was introduced to through Tony Robbins…I know that you know these guys)
🙂
Hopefully I can re-hire Stu in the coming months and get back on track for my 50 miler…but it helped greatly to get your perspective on it!
(Especially since I’m on a mostly alkaline/vegan diet)
Awesome work Matt in everything you’re doing here on your blog and in life!

Loved the race report….
My name is Michael Wentz and I am the founder and creator of DNF Publishing. We are a team of runners dedicated and committed to the sport of ultrarunning. DNF works with amateur ultrarunners and authors to create, publish, and distribute books on how to train for and finish specific ultramarathons.
Our goal and mission at DNF is simple. We want to publish and distribute books on how to train for and complete every ultramarathon. Yes, we know what you’r thinking … there are many books available already. That being said, there aren’t many, if at all, geared towards specific races. As an ultrarunner, you probably recognize that most ultra’s are entirely different from one another and require specific planning, training, and preparation. As such, DNF collaborates with you in putting together a novel for the race(s) you have completed and gives you a portion of the royalties received from each book sale.
I just happened to be reading your your race story and noticed you have a distinct writing style that I believe would be a great fit with DNF. I would like to co-publish a book with you on your completion of The North Face Challenge. It appears you have done most of the work already…
It’s actually very simple. There are two parts to each book. The first part entails general ultra training methodologies (written by DNF Publishing) and Part 2, specific race strategies (written by you). Although, before I launch into telling you how the process works, you might be interested in who we are ….

Let me know if the opportunity interests you and we’ll get you started on your first novel:) How cool would that be….
Regards,
Michael
