Texas RR 50/100 Success

What great success we had at the RR 50/100! It was nice to be out of the snow for a few days. The night was very bitter to the bone cold for many of us!

I was to pace and run with Kira doing her first 100! We were running so very well when at 30 miles my left foot got stuck under a tree root and I went flying through the air! Ouch!

I continued on for 10 more miles but my big toe was not going to allow me to take another step, the Doctor said looks like you broke your toe! Kira took off and continued on to an amazing 80 miles but ended up with the SAME toe issue! In all my years I have never seen a first timer be able to Power Walk 5.5 MPH and never get off pace. I am so impressed with this women's ability, we better all watch out next time:)

.Michelle Jensen 1st Women in the 50 and her first ULTRA!!! 8:10

Jay Batchen: my sweetie: 5th over all in the 50

.Steve Oliveria: 9:19 in the 50 with a best time by 1 hour and 45 minutes!

.Dale Perry: 20:20 in the 100

.Will Abrams: first 100 miles, fell asleep on the road and woke up and was thankful he was not eaten by a raccoon! Just under 29 hours!
