Dan,
My question is: After expending all that energy, how did you get down?

Funny you should ask. My wife and son were at the top waiting for me and my buddy. We drove down the mountain - at one point I had to pull over to let my brakes cool! My friend got out and just sat down on the ground and tried not to throw up...

But here's the kicker... there are about 700 people who will do the full marathon today... that is, run up the mountain, turn around, and run back down. If that isn't insane enough, a handful of these nuts do both races, one on Saturday, one on Sunday... I'm certifiable, but I'd never do THAT!!!!

So, who's gonna join me next year?!

Dan
