Bg hope all goes well for you, I would consider it a success if I could just stay awake for 24 hours :) Congrats to all the medalist on our team,especially to those who attained gold and just keep on going, perhaps a higher level catagory is needed next time...Maybe Platinum. I don't think I will make silver as I will be attempting another 14'er this weekend, weather permitting, sounds like we have a nice cold front moving in, so it depends on how much rain/thunder rolls in with that front.

thanks :) the hard part for me is that i'm a morning person so i'll be up at least 12 hours before the ultra starts....hopefully my caffeinated clif shots will work without upsetting my stomach....and adrenalin should kick in too.....i'll be a mess afterwards :] good luck and enjoy your adventure :}

Oops, got my calendar days goofed up! Anyway, now that I'm straightened out, I'll be thinking of you while you're actually underway.

Congratulations, Thor !!!
I felt compelled to find some nifty fact to honor this momentous occasion.
Found one. There is a Mount Thor - and it's in Canada !!!
It features the Earth's greatest vertical drop of 1,250 m (4,101 ft). So don't trip.
