Race: El Vaquero Loco (31 Miles) 06:50:00, Place overall: 10

Keep it simple on this one.  An unexpected rainstorm had me sleeping in a mud puddle under a soaked rain fly listening to the beaverly hillbilles change a tire on their 5th wheel at two in the morning. (Wyoming)  Missed the start cuz  I was at the car getting things together (stupid).  Ran way too hard for the first mile to get through the pack then raced hard for two hours through a beautiful morning on one of the most scenic courses anywhere.  Felt great for most of the first half, felt like hell on the way back. Still analyzing the melt down.  Not my best race. They happen. Great time all-n-all.

10th overall I think,  might have been first or second old guy (gotta play that for all I can) Only two hours behind Luke, who has to be the most down to earth badass runner around.

31 miles, 9000+ish vert.

Man, you are just pulling cool crap out of the woodwork. Nice job. And yes, Luke is extremely cool.

Solid race Bryce. That looks like a sweet course.
