Very inspiring reading JJJ. A true trail poet you are. Thanks for taking me on your journey. I'm a cave claustrophobic too. Yikes. enke

Wears me out just reading it. Congratulations on running both of these events! You write some fine RRs.

I make my living as a writer, but I'll be darned if I can do something like this: "In nature’s temple, the body becomes a censer swinging along mountainsides, across hollows and streams by the priest in the sky wearing a backpack. In a primal sense, sanctity moves from the higher echelons of conjecture and the unfathomable to the incarnate and ubiquitous." Certainly a delightful report to read and savor. Oh by the way, you can run too! Spareribs

Very well done JJJJJ both the runs and the report. I was just looking at some adventure type races in my neck of the woods the oher day mostly because you make it sound like so much fun. I found a few but what I also found out is you need to sign up early and pray for an opening because these are ecology minded people and they limit the entrys so not to make a big impact. Another reason why I like the idea of doing some of these. Thanks for sharing

That wasn't a report, that was poetry. You are just as gifted with your words as you are with your running and your friendship with others. Thanks JJJ. Keep running and keep writing. We are lucky to have you here.

You have set a new level for RR's! Fabulous. Thanks for sharing.

Nice going, JJJ. I love the spirit of your reports. Some great running experiences here!
