Right on! Sounds like you're definately ready for the Cascade Crest 100!
Awesome job, Eric! Bring it on!!
Congrats on making it all the way.
Welcome home, Eric, look forward to more info from you both!! Glad you are all safe!
Well done Eric to all involved! Great news.
Woohoo! Glad you didn't get eaten by a cougar. : )
Not to burst your bubble as I am sure you were somewhat catatonic when you wrote this, but it was ONLY 68 miles. I'll look forward to the full report.
It was EPIC. Thanks for staying close and I hope it helped you to take it easy along the way.
Yes Rob, this is why I don't usually do a report right after an event however my ice bath woke me up enough to think I could manage a brief update without making a mistake. It was 68 miles not 78. I got the "we both finished" part right!
holy crap! I don't know how you guys do it!
Were you still upbeat throughout? I mean, seriously, if I'm awake that long, it's not pretty, so I can't imagine climbing and running too....can't wait to read the details. Great job on finishing!
68 miles?? Holy ridiculousness!! I would think going that far on a training run would be harder than Cascade will be where you will have a lot more aid stations and other runners out there. Rock on!
