And I'd like to think we are both amazing and great, just me a little bit less so than you :).<br /><br />Marie-Aline, thanks! Pics soon. Three long days of travelling in a row are finally over.<br /><br />Yeah, Helen, that is a good way to look at it: I got to experience all ultra race challenges in one race :).<br /><br />Mmmonyka, oh no. It was still GREAT despite the horrors. Don't give up on the idea!<br /><br />Cherelli, Thanks. I feel already 95% recovered!<br /><br />Danni. I just don't know if I have it in me to run a 100. The insanity, that is.<br /><br />SteveQ, yes please come for the 6 day race! Way more insane than a 100 miler. We'd love watching you (suffer).<br /><br />Piccola, no I was more than 90% sure I couldn't do it.<br /><br />Thanks, Joy. You know it's my pleasure to report. :)sea legs girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14782712411873234071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834846832861622672.post-8443468289189932532010-04-05T22:25:33.223+02:002010-04-05T22:25:33.223+02:00Thanks for the race report!!Thanks for the race report!!Joy Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18419980158057378475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834846832861622672.post-82529417885303510722010-04-05T20:00:17.672+02:002010-04-05T20:00:17.672+02:00What a great race & a scintillating race repor...What a great race & a scintillating race report! Congratulations! What a fabulous achievement. I am curious, during the second loop did you really, truly believe you would not run the third loop? Or did you always know in a quiet corner at the back of your mind that you were going to finish no matter what?PiccolaPineConehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09520539255908849462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834846832861622672.post-25803650281396522872010-04-05T19:51:30.490+02:002010-04-05T19:51:30.490+02:00I need a new challenge and just discovered the Bor...I need a new challenge and just discovered the Bornholm (Denmark)6-Day Run.

I can imagine how hard it was for you, with the roots, the hills (even though hills are something you find on West coast, these little relentless bumops wear you off for sure), and the heat! I think you paced wisely (answering SR's question if you went out too hard - no, you didn't), held on great, and finished in great spirits. And you both are shy couple, despite your "loud" blogs:) BTW, with overalls I actually meant sweatpants. I juts loose words sometimes and substitute with whatever. You'll get used to it:) It was wonderful to meet you both!Olgahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00493291972954387932noreply@blogger.com
