Hi Abichal,

It IS amazing what Dean Karnazes ran in the 24 hr race, considering he only rested for less than 24 hours before the race, due to his trans-con — after the 5o/50, after his summer of 100-milers. He just missed the US Team – he did the same amount of laps as the 1st place finisher. Thanks for the results.
