To be out on the trail with what would be considered a "rival" in any other sport, talking, and enjoying the run with a friend is what life is all about!Running Bradhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16443435996759621247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3807027359418593456.post-54444924796045612572010-11-08T08:21:27.482-09:002010-11-08T08:21:27.482-09:00Fern is ridiculous.

I started running few months ago, did already two ultra marathons in BC and Oregon and going to SF for TNF 50miles. It will be pleasure to meet you guys and see running (probably only first 5 minutes into race;) Do u plan to go to the UTMB next year? That would be cool to see best american ultrarunners compeeting against europeans! cheersTomek Kowalskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04006467039812174828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3807027359418593456.post-22709172950114098722010-11-07T20:17:42.226-09:002010-11-07T20:17:42.226-09:00You encompass the trailrunning spirit!

The final number at the end... is just a number. <br />Love your great sportsmanship!HEATHERRUNShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09719908310466553570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3807027359418593456.post-44402740617993524962010-11-07T20:13:20.015-09:002010-11-07T20:13:20.015-09:00You know what?

Can't wait for the North Face 50 this year (my money is on you, though I won't be surprised if any one of a handful of others-- including, of course, Tony-- come out on top). Wish I could be there in person to watch it.<br /><br />Happy running!Brent Broomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11390487840646153121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3807027359418593456.post-43552328273677707882010-11-07T17:20:26.464-09:002010-11-07T17:20:26.464-09:00Great running with you today Geoff.

I was thinking the same thing about both of you guys as we cruised down Fern, it is humbling to have such talented friends to chase around the trails of Boulder. Hearing first hand about such amazing tales of battle between you guys at WS100 and other such races is a real treat.Jeff Vallierehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08106877622296558733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3807027359418593456.post-669293050626512542010-11-07T16:46:17.627-09:002010-11-07T16:46:17.627-09:00you are all amazing, but today we need to give it ...you are all amazing, but today we need to give it up for haile... one of the best runners in recorded history might be done forever... the whole tribe is losing something special today...<br /><br />peace and good things to you,<br /><br />jonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3807027359418593456.post-32931400518961655162010-11-07T16:38:51.412-09:002010-11-07T16:38:51.412-09:00Thought that was you I passed (going the other dir...Thought that was you I passed (going the other direction, of course) between Bear and SoBo. Great to see you out there. <br /><br />Though I like to think of myself as a decent downhill runner, I am confident that you guys would completely smoke me on any terrain.
