Having been entered in the race but not able to make it to SA I watched the whole race live on the web. I was rooting for you as that 6hr mark came and then seeing you come in just over a minute later was quite amazing. It was obvious you had laid it on the line... 24th is some stunning result and you took some major scalps. Very best wishes for 'WS'runwildrunfreehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13704626454942207108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-379797745883386200.post-87599530459898152102010-06-05T11:04:43.140-07:002010-06-05T11:04:43.140-07:00Hi Ian

An awesome result.<br /><br />We met once a few years back in the Three Forts Marathon, where you walked up the hills and took it easy as you had Belfast the next day. Looking at your blog, its amazing how you get around. You have ran so many races since then.<br /><br />Well done with your racing and your race reports. They are superb reading.<br /><br />StuartUltraStuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16637489358497153536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-379797745883386200.post-66760926927045785452010-06-05T04:38:40.983-07:002010-06-05T04:38:40.983-07:00Awesome.Awesome.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04749332548004937111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-379797745883386200.post-66917684621138228802010-06-03T15:51:19.543-07:002010-06-03T15:51:19.543-07:00I saw your finish live on TV (internet).

Next year your eyes will be on a gold medal I can imagine.<br />Getting fit for the WS now after giving 100% to the Comrades is of course a hard piece of work and requires a bit of luck too.

While the list counts two UK starters, I'm actually a third who is registered as a Coloradoan (where I currently reside). It appears that Jez Bragg is out with an injury, so we'll be the only two representing. <br /><br />Great run at Comrades. Let's hope you've got something left for States so we can bring home a couple of 'gold medals.' Hope to see you out there.
