Escarpment Trail Run

Completed the grueling 30km "Escarpment Trail Race" in the Catskill Mountains of New York State. 200 runners including lots who run 100 mile races. Fought off cramps on the third of three major climbs. Total elevation gain and loss, about 7,000 feet each. Happy to finish in 5 hours, 22 minutes. http://www.escarpmenttrail.com/

The volunteers (100 of them). Thank you volunteers!!
The plane.. yes, the plane!  Top of the third climb.  It's all downhill from here...

Thanks to Dick Vincent who started this run.  This was year 34!
