Lumberjacked
I finished the Lumberjack 100!!!
It's been since Leadville 2003 since I finished a 100 miler. I signed up for Leadville 2004 but broke two bones in my hand 3 days before that race and then DNFed at Lumberjack 2005 with a broken collarbone.... Well, hopefully I got that monkey off my back now....
Anyway, yesterday's race went great. It was forecast to hit 90+ degrees so I went out slow and just tried to maintain a happy 100 pace. I was amazed to hear my position at the finish. I thought I was running around 20th but at the end it was 6th.
First page of the results...
It did end up super hot out there. I drank about 240 oz. of grape gatorade during the race. Amazingly my legs did not cramp up once.
