My dearly beloved completed the hardest physical feat of his life. 100 miles traversing gravel roads, goat trails, a mountain, and the horrendous Powerline climb that comes at the end of the race.
I completed a 6 mile run (I use run loosely) at 10,200 feet above sea level. Did you know there is 30% less oxygen at 10,200 feet above sea level? I needed that 30%, badly.
The boys made the best crew and support team ever.
My beautiful sister and family were the key to a less stressful trip by keeping the Moomer.

| Why we really went. A short notice devotion and time of prayer brought in 20 athletes and family. |

| Smiling in true Chris fashion. The hard part is yet to come! |

| This is the last of the smiles for a while. He would crash literally and mentally, thanks God for a team of brothers. |
