Did you come down this trail? Mike: Yeah. Rex: Dude, this guy is just wrapping up 60 hours on these trails. Dude1:…
He did it
60 hours of running, through three nights, on 30min of sleep. (I hope no kids are watching: don't try this at home.) I am not authorized to pass this on, but I will anyway: Mike says he realized only last night how selfish his endeavor was, and how heavily he was leaning on his friends…
