Comrades Mini-Update

The best overall race experience I've had. What a great race. Truly "the ultimate."

I finished the 89+km race in 10 hrs and 37 min. See my final stats. A video of me crossing the finish line should be posted to that same page in a couple days. South Africa puts on a great event and they have every right to be as proud of it as they are.

I don't have much time on the internet now so can't do a full report quite yet, so enjoy a few images in the meantime.







Keep running!

Scott

  2. I just told AJ you finished the race. He asked if you won. Then he said "I guess the people from there are faster runners since they have to run from lions and tigers".
