[RC] "And 100 miles is not fun" - Tom Sites

Barbara, i use your quote and agree that at times in a 100 its not fun and it hurts for days afterward sometimes.
 
But, there are magic moments during 100's that i want on my tombstone.
 
"There is not a better high i have ever known than a horse that wants to canter at 80 miles."  ,,,,,,,,drugs, alcohol, sex, money, whatever, are all included in my life experience.
 
I may never be able to ever do another 100 i don't know, but magic moments like coming over the mountain in Colorado to the finish of the ROC will be one of the finest memories i could ever imagine.  Memories like these are the things that keep us young as we grow older.  ts
