That was hard. Really hard. But really awesome too.

Yeah, sorry I called your dad "Dad". You introduced him as "Dad", so I said "Hi Dad, I'm Robert". He looked at me like I had just asked him for money.

(ok, seriously, I was a completely random man in the dark calling him dad. I should think things through better)

You did a very amazing thing. And super triple kudos to Lukas, Dad, and Steve for being there for you.

Hope you feel well.

To run 100 miles that quickly on a flat course would be amazing. To run 100 miles that quickly on THAT course is incredible. To summon the toughness to run 100 miles that quickly on that course on a bad foot is mind boggling. You should be so very proud of your achievement Sara, congratulations!!!!

That goes well with your signature quote. Smile

I'd take that course over a flat course any day (though not with the injured foot). What beauty you must have seen!!

Enjoy recovery and can't wait to hear full report!
