I'm super excited for the 100 this year... We'll see what happens. I'm looking forward to reading your own report!Andrew Reiffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17399094750385289663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3854962314085158349.post-70959434519210451312013-07-19T06:48:12.198-06:002013-07-19T06:48:12.198-06:00Thanks, Andy!

Super happy for you, you are on fire and yes yes yes, you CAN get that big buckle in the 100, you have got to find out if it's there (it is), this is YOUR year!<br /><br />I came in at 10:52 (and can first-hand verify the apocalyptic rain storm as it poured on me for about 3 minutes...grateful it wasn't longer) - a solid 2 hours faster than I had hoped (my first time, I had no clue really where I'd land). Maybe we both paid our dues at Sage Burner and the bad races are in the past!<br /><br />I had some bad stomach issues up the middle section climb from hell (I am not familiar with their names like you, but I think it was the climb up to the pass) and my music, which I had just pulled out an hour earlier, was making me nauseous beyond belief. Interesting that you had nausea here last year, too. I was behind on fluids earlier so I think that was the culprit, but the music was making it so much worse. Once I yanked the earphones out and walked a bit on the backside I felt a LOT better and could start running again (then the hail hit bad right when I hit the Rock Garden aid station. ugh). In ever put the music back in for fear of that gut ache returning. <br /><br />Anyway, this isn't my race report :), but I found the similarities between our races eerily similar, just like Sage Burner. Congratulations again, I am pumped for your 100!Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10174883718651790845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3854962314085158349.post-14407138785756138232013-07-17T11:05:05.047-06:002013-07-17T11:05:05.047-06:00That is an awesome time Andy!
