Non ducor, duco.
the Todd (aroundthehorn) also busted out some nice runs. I know he has some fast running in his future if he's up for the training.
Scovill made this thing possible. He is/was amazing. He destroyed all of our excuses. His enthusiasm is addictive. After every leg he was there telling you that you were fantastic. What a great guy. Seriously.
Obsessor ran his legs like there was Olympic gold at stake. At one exchange, a portly gentlemen decided to stand in the exchange area and help a runner remove her reflective vest. Derek came plowing into the exchange and I swear he almost mowed the guy over. Moving in front of him is like moving in front of a speeding train. His intensity is beautiful.
Wow, I'm surprised people are questioning my dedication. I know it's nothing compared to the amazing Scovill but I did run when I probably shouldn't have (my knee is pretty fked up right now). My only reason for seeing this thing out was to not let my team down.

Oh Mighty Wing
a fantastic effort TIm! great, great results. Just so there is no worrying, I did go to the doctor this morning. After a bit of "discussion" and deliberation, they put a cast on my foot. I'm convinced that the cast was applied 'cause they didn't trust me. wankers.
Congratulations to the RunningAhead.com team! It is impressive that you guys came together and worked as a team...not a bad finish at all! Congrats to Tim for pulling it off... Needless to say, it will be a life-long memory for each of you. Did any of you happen to see/come across the solo runner (a friend of mine)? I have battled him in more than a couple races, he's a great guy and a talented ultra-distance runner. I was quite happy to see that he finished. Rest well folks! Lynn B MTA: so, the convenience store clerk felt that shirtless Tim was an offense to the clientele... am I to presume that the clerk did NOT throw Anda out for being shirtless?
