#81 Ultra finished!

 Hey you all!  Thanks for tuning in!

 Yesterday I decided to do another round of my last run in the Honeybee and the Big Wash area near home in the Tucson area.  Starting at around 7 am in great cool conditions for the first 12 miles or so, the sun peaked through the light clouds all day but the heat was just enough to keep the body warm all the rest of the day.  I finished 29 miles at about 2 pm with Lori and the dog waiting for me at the trailhead   I went home and celebrated with a hot tub and a Coors light.  A great day was had by all.  My mother Joan helped me through my running all day even after my ipods and original ipod went buns up halfway through the run.  

Thanks to all of you for your support!  Take care!

#80 Ultra!!! - 80% Done with my quest!

 Well it's been awhile, but I finally I'm back!  Finishing #80 is a milestone for me.  I'm super happy to be at this stage of my 100 by100 quest.  AND, really lucky but extremely fortunate.  Thank you everyone for helping me make it this far!  I appreciate you all, and LIFE in general, and this beautiful land we live in!

Yesterday I completed this 28 miler near my home basically in and around Honeybee Canyon and the Big Wash trails.  Cold at the start (7:30am) but finished 7 hours later with my wife Lori and dog greeting me at the end of the trail.  Actually a perfect day to run - high in the upper 60's with a nice breeze the whole day.  

After a few injuries in the past few months and having to not run my usual Flagstaff to Grand run in September, I was real glad to complete this run.  

Thank you all again for your support.  I really appreciate it.
