He was really nice and encouraging to me, even though we did not know each other. How ironic! You guys both ran like champs out there, on tough day and tough course!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26786877.post-62185326436555570272007-08-07T06:29:00.000-04:002007-08-07T06:29:00.000-04:00Kim,First I'd like to say it was so nice to meet y...Kim,<BR/>First I'd like to say it was so nice to meet you (I had heard so much about the Legendary Trail Goddess, it was about time I met her).<BR/>Next, thank you for the great post. It was so nice to hear the scoop since I had to leave mile 65.7 early (really early), so I could go spend time with my hubby, who still doesn't quite get us runners. He loves us, but thinks we're a little nuts (he's trying to join the running world, but so far 4 miles is good enough for him ;)!)<BR/>I'm so glad you were there for Mike, even though his celebration began a little earlier than he had planned he still had a lot to celebrate (65.7 miles is so awesome!)<BR/>I'm also glad you got to run with someone because I know when I left you were ready to run!<BR/>Everyone who ran this race and was there supporting the runners deserves a big Hoorah!!!!<BR/>SaraSarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00734105284156901542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26786877.post-59291661215782310622007-08-06T19:21:00.000-04:002007-08-06T19:21:00.000-04:00It was nice having you at the aid station.

I felt bad when Mike and you arrived as I know the feeling after dropping out of the BKT50k a couple of weeks ago (I think you were even at the aid station I dropped at). I was telling the guys at work today about Gabe's little song. It kept me laughing for a good little while. I don't know if you heard his mothers response but as they ran out of the station she said "He'll love her in the morning". It went pretty deep what others go through to help people reach their goals.Brett S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05477997343938779307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26786877.post-49344635940384908882007-08-06T10:47:00.000-04:002007-08-06T10:47:00.000-04:00Kim it was so great seeing you!

I saw him and Wendy come in but I missed his song about her.<BR/><BR/>I love the photo of my volunteers, makes me feel good that I didn't look nearly as haggard as I thought I might!<BR/><BR/>What an amazing weekend. I see now how all of you get inspired to do this type of event. I think my husband is praying I don't get that inspiration though.E-Speedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07569869104198800517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26786877.post-81341041965716224272007-08-06T06:38:00.000-04:002007-08-06T06:38:00.000-04:00Yes, I think Mike should be very proud. I remembe...Yes, I think Mike should be very proud. I remember seeing Gabe, now, at the 95 mile aid station--he was sitting down a little too long, Sean W. (Master Sean) had to shoo him off if he wanted to make it in under 24 hours. Good to see that he accomplished that.Soapin' Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04319945263299559871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26786877.post-15081909406410062612007-08-05T20:48:00.000-04:002007-08-05T20:48:00.000-04:00Kim,Thank you so much for being there for me!

I only wish I had it in me to make that next cutoff, but it was not to be this night.<BR/><BR/>I thank you for not revealing how much of a blubbering mess of an idiot I was at this point in the race.<BR/><BR/>Well, maybe it wasn't in the cards to finish my first 100 with you as my pacer, but instead as a fellow racer (Rocky Racoon!!!) I am still so proud of what I did do yesterday! I can't tell you how hard it was to just GET to you at Happy Days. Lasheda told me you said something to the effect that I better get there....and that was my rallying thought along with making sure I completed 100km.<BR/><BR/>Thanks again Kim! Now we both had to use Sean as "second fiddle" while pacing....very funny coincidence.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
