Congrats! Tremendous accomplishment.
You were running literally in my back yard. We have trail hook ups from my back acreage.
I've done some baby ultras (50K's) and really have a hard time trying to wrap my head around that distance. Great job.
I always wondered what it would be like to run in the dark while I'm flipped out from exhaustion. Do you start getting paranoid or see things? I know you got emotional but were there any really wierd moments?
AT: Unfortunately I did not have any hallucinations :) I never felt sleepy tired, just physically tired (and I don't use caffeine). I've heard some great hallucination stories from other ultrarunners I train with though.
I had done some overnight runs in preparation, so I didn't freak out in the deep dark night. There were some weird noises (cows? bull frogs?) that we couldn't quite distinguish, but I was never afraid. In fact, I LOVE running in the middle of the night...the trails are a different world in the dark.
Thanks jtrimom...I've been told that its more than just a little crazy :)

Aw shucks. :) I was hoping I could read your report aloud and have it sync up to Pink Floyd (either you get this or you think I'm an idiot).
Awesome report and race. Congratulations.
