So, what do you think? Does Wasatch look hard?
Piece of cake! I often climb 5000 feet in a couple of miles... everytime I'm leaving on a jet plane!
Ok, off to run some hill kings!

Quotable
"You know what I call the guy who's DFL? A finisher!" Overhead at the back of the pack at Western States in 2009. It meant a lot more to me at the end than it did at mile 3 when I heard it.
"Hey were you DFL at Western States? So was I!" Some dude named Steve that I met at Umstead. He was DFL in 2006, I was DFL in 09.
Becky talking about the need for training partners, "It takes a village to run a 100-miler." June's reply, "Yeah, a village Idiot!" Priceless June Bug, priceless!
“We are not in a hurry anymore.” Roger to his crew as he entered Camp 10 Bear for the first time in the Vermont 100, Ouch! Darn evil doctors!
"Road Marathons Suck!" Words of wisdom from Professor ACG. Listen to him, he knows of what he speaks!
"It's slippery." From the dude lying on his back at the Alafia Trail 1/2, regarding the trail condition of the muddy downhill I was about to run. Thanks, now could you roll to the side.
"There is no Try, either Do or Do Not Do." Yoda. Ok, little man, that sounds like you have a Do-Do philosophy. There is no try may work for keeping the Dark Force at bay and saving an empire, but oh-great-wrinkled-one, we're talking about running 100 Miles. Now drop and give me 20, Mr. Jed-Eye!
To me, From an aid station volunteer at Ancient Oaks 100-mile trail run, "The difference is, You could do what I'm doing, I could never do what you are doing!"

Oh, buddy, you need to come out for a visit ... You need to come run Leadville with me (oh, but when there's no snow) ...
Chase
I am looking forward to that. I'm thinking we'll mock Memorial Day weekend WS training. Do that Leadville 50K course on Sat. Then 20 on Sunday and then 20 on Monday. Yikes! but we'll be in the kind of shape that we can finish Western States!
Hey, again, you're getting pretty good at this 100 mile thing. That's two great races in a row. To finish Arkansas on that day! Then well under all cutoffs at Rocky. Be good.
So, like, if we come out and watch your hill kings, would we find you holding a can of cheap beer, rehearsing your favorite quote: "Nobody likes a knowitall who sits around talking about their genitalia" ??
Ok, I'll admit it, I don't recognize that movie line, at least I hope it's a movie line!
Oh how you dissapoint me. Here's another clue (Hint: its not a movie, but it is a Gen X favorite:
FRIEND's NAME: Dale Gribble
OCCUPATION: Licensed owner/operator of "Dale's Dead Bug."
HOBBIES: Paranoia, smoking, golf
QUOTE: "Guns don't kill people. The Government does."
FAVORITE CONSPIRACY: You really believe they landed on the moon?
What a tool! What do you live under a rock, Andy "Man." I bet you are gay, Not that there is anything all that wrong with it! You sure aren't "King of the Hill!" That's the answer turkey Jerk!
Oh, I get it, Hill Kings, King of the Hill, that's good, I should have picked up on that, but I've never seen King of the Hill, so there's that. And hey, Dave or Chase, or whomever, no I am not gay (not that there is anything wrong with that), but my boyfriend is!
