Last Lap

It was good to see that sign as I made the turn for my last six miles.

The family ran the last 50 yards of the 50-miler with me. It was pretty awesome.

Ultra Family

Well, as many of you know courtesy of Facebook, I finished my first 50-miler Saturday, at the Mississippi 50 in the Desoto National Forest near Laurel. It was awesome! The most memorable parts were (1) my miraculous finish despite being absolutely certain that my foot hurt too bad to continue at mile 31 and (2) Anita Beth and the kids pulling for me the whole way, from sleeping in the cold on Friday night to standing by the trail all day Saturday, holding signs and cheering from 6 a.m. to 5 p.m. Thanks family (and you especially, Anita Beth). It was one of the best experiences I've ever had. Here are a few pics.
