My "woobie"

Way tougher than expected

Wow, Mt Disappointment is done... finally!
Don't get me wrong it was an excellent race with great support (Thank You to all the volunteers and RD Gary). The challenge of this course was legendary, and had I known in advance the level of challenge over the last 5 miles I may not have convinced Kristen my running-mate of the day to be taking on her first Ultra.

But hey it's all part of why we do these things, personal fulfillment and the can-do attitude. Here's proof of our finish to an excellent day.

Read an excellent write up as I could not describe it any better than "The Run Down"



OK time to get some rest before the next Ultra this weekend at Noble Canyon. Happy Trails friends

Not that I really intend to maintain this on a daily basis, I do hope to at least make some interval comments. It's a way for me and you (whoever you are) to make an appearance in webland.
