| God! That's about the most inspiring thing I've read this year. If that doesn't make you want to get a run in, I don't know what will. Great stuff! |
| I ran. I ran until my muscles burned and my veins pumped battery acid. Then I ran some more. |

Nice job, Jakob! I tried to get in that race, but it closed the day I learned about it and I missed out! I love running at night under the moon! Congrats on a well earned finish!

Much to my wife's chagrin, you've tipped me off the fence, and now I totally am going to do an ultra next year!
Thanks for posting this. Its inspirational, funny, and just outright entertaining!
Again... AMAZING story! |

My first race ever was on a 19km leg of the Canadian Death Race.
I thought I was so trained and ready for this thing... I had done like AT LEAST three 8mi. long runs... TOTALLY more than enough to finish my 19km leg with time to spare... ah, we all remember our early running days I assume.  I want to run this one because (at the time) I thought a marathon, let alone 125km, was an impossible task. I think it also has the coolest race name out of anything I've ever seen or heard!
It is a 125km (78mi) race that summits three mountains and has ~17,000 feet of elevation change. It is run during the first week of August.

I'm looking at doing it in 2009 because I want to try a BQ this year.
You do realize that I'm going to remember the name 'ultrarunner2' and hound you out over the next few months for advice now don't you?
But enough of this. CONGRATULATIONS and thanks for posting an AMAZING race report.
I actually laughed out loud reading it when you said the line, "It was clear to me that there is no way I could finish such a race and being an ultra runner I immediately signed up."
Embarassing in cubicle world.
