Wilderness 101 video

Here is a pretty cool video that someone shot while racing on Saturday. The video is over 6 minutes, but the background music and the fact that it gives you a good taste of what the 101 is all about, make it well worth watching. Be sure to watch it through to the end... my friend Matt gives the Ride for the House campaign a plug - thanks, Matt!

The video may take a few seconds to show up in your browser, so be patient!

Race Day Pictures!


Mile Zero... ... looking a tad over confident
(obviously I have no idea what I'm in for today!).


My cheering crew near Alan Seeger Natural Area
(~50 miles in).


It was SO good to see my girls along
the course!






Alaina was obviously not happy with the way I smelled...




Alaina at the finish line... wondering if I'd ever get there!



10 more minutes, and I'm outta here!



Finally, I cross the line...



only to be charged by my dog, Henry...


then came Tracey and Ella while Henry barked in the
background!


I don't think Henry liked the way I smelled either.


My good friend, Chip.. he finished about 4 hours earlier.







Chris Scott (blue hat) is the promoter of the 101, and
although he looks like he's getting down on the harmonica,
he is actually telling the crowd about my Ride for the
House fund raising efforts. Thanks for the props, Chris!




A few more cheers....


Happy to be off the bike!
