Hi, everyone. I finished the Heartland 100 this weekend. Short race report: it was fun, it was hard, can't wait to do it again, finished in 28:25:21. For the long version, go here. Thanks! Hope everyone is doing well.

Great race and report! If you listen to the White Stripes: A seven-nation army couldn't hold you back. Keep up the great attitude, and enjoy the events coming up!

Nice job man, that's hardcore. I'm a little jealous of that belt buckle. Someday, someday.

An outstanding run. Very very well done. You should be very, and justifiably, proud of yourself!

Congratulations! And how great that you had so many friends to virtually cheer you on. And your daughter looks pretty dang proud of her daddy. Big grin
