My photo appears in TrailRunner
I'm drinking my Sunday morning coffee and pick up my TrailRunner magazine which arrived yesterday. There's a feature article about the 2005 Pikes Peak Marathon. I open it up and find a photo of myself coming down the mountain in 2005. The photo was taken near the summit, the turn around banner is in the background.
I wasn't in the story. They must have just liked the photo. Very cool and another little hint that I'm following the right path.
I was feeling great at this point in the race. I was a little lightheaded but I enjoyed a great run to the top and was flying downhill. A couple miles later (at about the treeline) I discovered the quad pounding at that tempo was more than I could maintain. I ended up slogging along at a slower pace. Unfortunately I got passed by 20 guys on the downhill. 2005 Race Results

David,
I think you are crazy! And this is coming from a confirmed "running nut". But if anyone can bike to CO and then run up Pike's Peak, you can! All the best to you. Nick Whiteside
