Great report! Beautiful scenery! I'm running it this year just wondering if they your crew was able to see the times you hit the early aid stations so they could figure out when to meet you at the Crewed aid stations
I love that your well-chosen music does not drown out the sound of your feet running on the trail. You capture the beautiful landscape so well. Thank you for sharing your thoughts as you are having them in trying to decide what to do. I find it helpful to hear someone else have this conversation with himself. Good job in every way. Have a wonderful experience at Tors des Géants.
Thank you very much! And thanks for appreciating the editing it takes. I’m still a beginner when it comes to video editing, but I try to improve it with every new race video :-)
Glad to see your story. Bummer you pulled up short of the finish. Glad to see you enjoyed our trail work (the sunset and nice running you mentioned heading down to Yakima Pass.) From the "Beer Aid" / PCT trail crew guy, 2 miles short of Meadow Mtn Aid.
It’s not the first time and won’t be the last. That’s why we do these things. No point if finishes were guaranteed every time. If there is nothing else I learned in 150 ultras, I did learn that:-)

My crew just got to the aid station early as I wasn’t using my personal tracker for this race.
What a beautiful area/run/race! I enjoyed the sights!

I remember you:-) you kindly let me sit on your cooler for a short reprieve and to remove rocks from my shoes:-) I should’ve enjoyed a beer:-(
It was a pleasure to meet you at Meadow Mtn AS. I know you’ll be back to finish what you started!
That’s the plan, hopefully in 2025, summer 2024 is already tentatively booked for other adventures:-)
Sorry you had a rough time, DNF‘s always suck, but you know you’ll be back strong
