Moving while sleeping - 3rd morning of my 72-hour run, in a somewhat "dazed" state. As far as mileage goals, like I said, I really didn't set any. I guess I had a soft goal of 200 miles in order to get the new 200 buckle, but otherwise, I didn't really know where I'd come out above that. Running early on Day 2.

First off, I decided to label this post as an "Event Report" as opposed to "Race Report" because somehow it didn't really feel like a race. It was more of a personal journey for everyone there. It never really felt like we were racing each other. Some fun signs along the loop. Even t-rexes can overcome! Lastly.than...

Oh but those hills.were most certainly coming. Jodi and I scrambling. Jodi's look of excitement (or terror? Did I pay for this? Runable", rocky, downhill. Happy ...
