This past weekend Laura was victorious in her Vermont/McNaughton 100 mile run. Rain, Thunder, Lightning, Sleet, Hail, Snow, Mud, Ice, and 24000 feet of elevation climb couldn't stop her.
We were humbled to see such a display of brutal mental toughness and physical capacity, common traits exhibited across the entire participating field of athletes.
The image posted today shows Laura (white jacket) right after crossing the finish line with an honor guard escort of her family.
Congratulations, Laura!

Hey guys,
Interesting video I found on Jason Khalipa's site. It's about the importance of stretching and eliminating "fuzz."

Dang!
Happy to be one of only 5 finishers but couldn't have done it without my crew. Thanks to Sam & Nate who froze their butts off camping on top of that mountain working the aid station. When the weather hit it was no longer a race to see who could run 100 miles up and down that mountain the fastest but who is fighting hypothermia & "stupid stubborn" enough to stay out there for that long; that'd be me & 4 others. Sam did a great job pacing me from miles 50-85 ran as much of it as we could but a lot of it was slogging through ankle and shin deep mud & saved me many times during the night from running off the switchback and over the cliff.

Congrats Laura! It is very impressive and very humbling to know someone capable of testing the limits of the human body the way you do. Definately motivates the hell out of me.

Way to go Laura, I couldn't imagine doing that! 100 miles in a car is hard enough.
