Nice going, Russ. Sorry aobut the illness and the stomach issues, but hey, you did it again! Maybe I will see you in November?

Russ, congratulations on gutting it out. For my first ultra marathon (a 50 miler), I came down with the flu in the hotel at 2 a.m. in the morning before the race. I guess if it hadn’t been my first ultra, I would have bailed. I probably should have anyway. Bottom line, what doesn’t kill us makes us stronger, if not necessarily smarter. But nobody said we did these things to be smarter, did they?

That’s some pretty stout climbing, healthy or sick. Congratulations and great report.

Congrats on your fighting finish. Sounds like this event was a real “character builder.” It’s always such a bummer when random circumstances (virus, pulled muscle, whatever) interfere with great training. I have a feeling you’ll be back, though.

Thanks for your excellent Savageman race reports (‘07 & ‘08). I’m doing the race for the first time next week and your posts are really helpful in figuring out what to expect.

Adam is also a huge Dolphins fan. He will be happy to learn that he has a fellow Dolphin in the area.
