       So cool. Congratulations!

      BTW this thread is worthless without a race report.

            2 water crossings were about knee deep, no rain but moderately muddy, temperature was almost perfect, although it was a little warm 4 some, some dropped because of dehydration, i think some were trying to run in the hot part of the day. i decided to walk at the hotest part of the day to save some energy 4 later. i did run pretty fast my first 10 mile loop 1:40

              Congratulations, Buzzard!  Sounds like a smart move to walk during the heat of the day.  How hot did it get?

               

              Now about that race report . . . . .

                      Good Job.  Just finiishing anything over 50 is huge.

                            That is fantastic.  Congrats!

                             

                            I know it got warm, but I think you got lucky with the mud.  This is known as being an insanely muddy course, and I heard it was very manageable this year.
