Hardrock

Wow, what to say. Finally finished very early Sunday morning after almost 43 hours of playing in the mountains.

Thanks to Dave and Christian for tagging along to follow the story. Felt like I had a paparazzi following me the entire weekend. The print story is scheduled for next Sunday, but some of the updates can be seen here.

Also can't forget to thank my wonderful crew, Katie and Melissa, both of whom I couldn't have done without.

I was talking to Neal at the awards ceremony and I said, "I got lots of advice from runners who have done Hardrock before, and I came in respecting the race, but it was still a helluva lot tougher than I thought it was gonna be." And Neal replied, "You just can't explain this to someone who hasn't done it."

With that in mind I'll try to get a race report out tomorrow.
