Beautiful day out on Cap. Peak, up on top all 5 WA state volcanoes were visible, and the the temps felt 25 degrees warmer than below the cloud line. I didn't feel great but good enough for a fun day on the trails (and good enough for a shot of tequila at mile 22 :-) |

Okay, now I feel like I'm actually back on track and this was the perfect trail to get to that point, rolling and soft, and in the perfect temps. to boot! The RDs did a great job with the aid that was available & the course was great. I'll hope to run there again in the future. |

This was an awesome event that far too many people missed out on. 6 loops around Bridle Trails (+ a little neighborhood trail), each loop preceded with 16oz. of Mac'n'Jaks African Ale. I even walked away with an etched glass mug that read "Queen of Beers" (it was meant for the first place female who also drank, but said finisher didn't exist, thus, me)! |

Miraculously, this is not my worst marathon ever (of course I got lost on the the "worst" one and it was a bit long) - I came into this race completely untrained and under prepared, but never-the-less had a good time running it... just really slowly is all... the next one will be better (I'm training again!), and that was really the point, just get up and go. Thanks, as always, to Steve & his wonderful volunteers! |

A really great first year event with good support & schwag. I enjoyed getting a chance to run on Vashon's elusive trails, and generally felt good the entire race. I hope they continue to do this race the same day as Seattle R'n'R, it was nice to have an option that didn't involve 27,000 runners, blaring 'rock' bands, and too much asphalt. |

Amazing.

Wow! What an experience, the first 50 felt great, very manageable pace. From 50 miles 'til day light ran with MM #542 & "John." Started to feel blisters the second time up 9 mile hill (~80 miles in), came down slowly but got bandaged up with 7 miles left. Finished with a smile on my face to the cheers of many a fellow Maniac! One week after and here I am wondering when the next 100 is :-) |

Yeesh! Both legs totally cramped up prior to getting 10 mile down (up) the trail - S!Caps kinda, sorta saved my race, with out them I was a DNF no doubt. Tough day physically but I learned 2 very important things, (a) I actually *can* cramp (b) I can suffer for a good 40 miles + and still finish, that should come in handy for longer distances, like, say, 100 miles :-) |

Lost a friend to Leukemia the day before - my race totally dedicated to him. Ran a little more than the first half with Pete Nicholson (MM#207). Kept an even pace *almost* the entire race, really started to feel beat down around mile 23 - almost ditched the 3:30 goal but mental clarity and focus returned - pushed hard the final 2 miles, ignored the pain, and thought of my friend - I'll miss you Stever. |

Not too bad, all things considered... managed to drop 17 minutes off last years time despite having not run for the previous 3 weeks. The course got pretty old pretty fast this year, but I'll probably find myself out there again next year using the race as some sort of yard stick... completely separate from all that, did you all see Van out there!?! 150 miles one week, a 50K the next!!! Amazing! Great to see her and all the other Maniacs enjoying a beautiful day. |

I set out to do 100K but after 10 wet and cold loops I was through - I came unprepared and suffered the consequences. Never the less, the race was once again top notch, JB and volunteers did a great job and it's always fun to be surrounded by so many Maniacs - I look forward to doing it again next year. |

My 'perceived effort' didn't quite match up with my time but never-the-less, I had a good run with good company - Andre (who free-styled for us) for the first half and Matt (and his pinned on motivation) the whole way through. 13 in 12 weeks! I guess now I'll have to return to my rightful place as a mini-maniac - congrats to Eric Barnes who also completed his '13 in 12' (we ran all the same races except for our #12s)!

My first go as a race director *almost* went off with out a hitch (sorry runners - I honestly believed the parking lot would be open). My nerves carried me through the first out of the two out and backs, after that I was Gu dependent. The course was 'faster' than my time reflects, but I took it easy trying to run and manage the race at the same time. Thanks to all the Maniacs who came out and ran - unless the MN Vikings make it to the Super Bowl (don't worry, they won't) plan for a 2010 event! |

Wow... talk about a BONK, a personal worst (by over 40 minutes - the day after a 50K PR)... I felt bad from the moment I started running - I probably allowed myself to do worse than I should have - I was able to finally get out of my head on the final 'back' of the 4 out'n'backs and run the remainder with Eric Barnes. Regardless of my failings, race director Brian did an excellent job and I'm glad he put this together once again. 3rd double! |

Perfect day for running - fog in the morning, then clear, sunny skies... snow, mud, rocks, rushing water - what else would you want on a trail run? I went out too fast and continued to push harder than I should have the first half of the second loop, with 10K remaining I pretty much feel apart... oh well, lesson taught (lesson learned? we'll see...) |

I'm told the course is long but I have no idea how much longer than 26.2 it was, I'm sure it wasn't 'long' enough to justify my time :-) Thanks to Mary and all the great volunteers! |

Scott the RD does a great job, great post race grub and fun goody bags and medals provided by the wonderful Lenore Dolphin.
My time didn't match my effort (thought for sure I had a PR coming my way) but oh well, had a great run and I'm already looking forward to next year. |
