Super huge props to my boy Payro for finishing his first (and from the sounds of it, last) 100 mile run. He ran under really tough circumstances (Arizona desert heat) and from what I understand he suffered greatly the last feww hours, but I never questions that he'd finish -- and in the spectacular time of 23 (that's hours): 46. Under 24 hours is a huge benchmark in ultrarunning and a major, major accomplishment.
I'm stoked for him and now that I saw a picture of his belt buckle (what you get for finishing under 24 hours), I'm thinking I want one too. Not sure if I have the time in my life to do the kind fo training that a race like this necessitates, but something I am giving consideration to all the same.
Congrats and well done, Payro; feel free to post a race report.

congrats Payro! can you post a photo of the buckle?
Because 26 miles just isn't enough. Nor is 50 or 75 for that matter. Utter insanity. Payro deserves our congratulations and recommendations for a good team of mental health professionals.

Thanks to all. Howard has a photo of the buckle, I'm sure he can post it. I'll have a race report soon.
Congrats Payro!!!!!!

What's next? Getting the swelling in my feet and legs to go down would be a good start.
