I'm a husband, a father, a blogger and a runner. I play my music in the Texas sun.
This is the story of my running adventures, marathons and ultra marathons on road and trail, and the people I've met who make it all worthwhile.
I really struggled at the Hells Hills 50 miler today, but with the temperature in the 90s so did everyone else. I finished in 10:58 and came away with a nice trophy for taking 6th place overall.
I never had a doubt you couldn't pull it off...10:58 in that heat is probably like a 7 hour 50 miler on a normal day....so pretty darn impressive. Now enjoy a Sunday of rehydrating on the couch!

Congrats on the 5th place overall Mark! No doubt in my mind about the DNF - knew you'd make it through despite the conditions.
Look forward to the report when you're up to it!
