There is so much to tell I will do a report for each day as I get and have time. For now I give you a short and quick glimpse at it all. I finished and felt great every day.
Quick summary for now:
Story of day 1: wet, wet, wet with water and mud everywhere.
Dozens of crossings like this!
With water comes mud...
Hard work rewarded with unbelievable views!
Monster mountains to climb.
More climbing!
Spectacular views at the top!
4AM start today!
Climbed to the highest point...
...to run on top of the world!
Have a super week everyone!

ReplyDeleteThe first picture, which shows those runners while they were crossing the water, is really fantastic.
I look forward to reading your race report.
Great job. I love the pictures of the water crossing. how did you run with your feet sloshing after you crossed?
ReplyDeleteJohann - when people say to me "Wow Jim you run a lot" or "Man Jim, you're a good runner" I just laugh to myself and think about guys like you who are REAL RUNNERS!!! You are a friggin' MAN and I am not anywhere near your class. I love reading your reports and finding out what extreme race you've done next ... it never fails to amaze me! Great job my friend as always. You are one of my running heroes!

ReplyDeleteYou're so fortunate to have such beautiful courses!!! I find that breath taking races seem sooooo much easier than boring ones..... Even if they are more technical!
