100 Miler - Mission Accomplished!

The Zion 100 was gruesome, scenic, challenging, HOT, inspiring, demoralizing, incredible, beautiful, (did I mention HOT?) and simply awesome. It was the hardest thing I've ever done, the most miserable I've ever been, and the most fun I've ever had. I finished running 100 miles after 34 hours, 59 minutes, and 59 seconds. We'll just call it 35 hours. THANK YOU to everyone who supported me!!!!!! I'll share my report along with some of my 227 pictures in the next day or two.
 (Unfortunately, I really was that red.)

    I'm sure the furthest thing from your mind is another 100 miler but just curious if you have any future 100's on the radar?

    Looking forward to hearing all about this one and the surprises you will be sharing.

    Is it true people actually got lost out there in the mountains?

    Congrats, Cory! I don't think you look that red, but I guess photos can be deceiving. Looking forward to the report.

    Great job, Cory. Thanks for all the chit-chat and insight. The heat chewed me up and spit me out. When I got home, I followed the three of you religiously on ultralive.net. Glad you all made it to the finish to grab some new hardware.

    Travis,
    A decent running partner for 45ish miles.
