A Few Of My Pictures In UltraRunning Magazine! and Blood Moon

I forgot to tell you but I got a cool surprise when I opened the previous issue of UltraRunning Magazine: a two page spread of a picture I took at the Javelina Jundred 100 miler!

That race definitely was a "Sonoran Scorcher". In the following pages there was another picture I took plus one that Mel took of me while I was running the race.

I am so happy to be associated with such an awesome magazine. I feel really, really thankful.

In other news, we had a cool visit last week from fellow Altra Ambassadors Kathy and UltraPedestrian Ras who asked us to babysit their car for a few weeks while they spend some time on the 800 MILE (!!!!!) Arizona Trail going for a fastest known time.

My kids were interested in hearing their cool stories. Before they left they gave the kids a few stickers. I had finished the Zion 100 the day before their visit and can attest that this sticker is true:

And finally, in completely un-running related news, I went out Monday night to take pictures of the "blood moon" eclipse. I was not an enormous fan of setting my alarm for 1:30am to go catch the eclipse, but I suppose that's what Diet Dr. Pepper the next day is for.
