The downfall of a Runners High

Hard Rock from the Pacer who lived to tell about it

HARDROCK 100 aka the H.U.R.T. buddies team up again for Daniel’s success in the world’s hardest 100…

CCC-100M-DNF

This year was not to be.

I ran well, felt good for 20 hours did 75 miles and managed to get well off course fell in Mineral Creek up to my chest and had to bush whack for 90 minutes.
Fortunately for me John also took the wrong turn at Mineral Creek and heard me yelling!
I was cut and bruised to buggery and very sad.

Finishing HARD ROCK!!!!!!!!

So, heard of the little race called Hard rock 100. Well I can say I have lived to tell you about it. On Sunday the 15th at 4:40 am after running for 46 hours and 40 minutes I crossed the line and kissed the rock to finish my first Hard rock 100! I’m still in need of much sleep and so this will be short. In fact it all still seems like a dream. An absolutely incredible dream. I dreamed of huge mountains, brilliant wild flowers, cascading waterfalls, endless streams, 14,000 ft sunsets and kissing a rock. Was it really real? Did I really finish the toughest 100.5 mile mountain run on earth? Yes I think I did. So after I get a little more sleep I’ll tell you all about it.

Mt Shasta run
Well It's been a crazy two weeks and an awesome way to kick off the summer.  Tina Ure who I finished the HURT 100 with in Hawaii invited me down to California for a little summer warm up.  We ran the Silver State 50 mile in Reno, ran the Western States training run in Auburn and did a 28 hour custom 3peaks run including a climb up and down 14,162 ft Mt Shasta.

Holberg to Port Hardy 50K

Ms.J and I just got back from one fabulous W/E with the friends and families that partook in the sixth annual Foot Roast.

Plantar Fasciitis - Yuk!

I'd heard of it.  I sure couldn't spell it.  Before I got it, I figured anyone who whined about their foot being sore was a wuss... but this injury sidelined me for the better part of 9 months.
