BACK TO BACK

Congratulations Zip and to the others who will post later - That was awesome

My hat is of to the three timers.....Zip, Rick and Micheal. You guys are unreal. Got a text lastnight that indicated Rick and Micheal missed the last tram down and so they may have walked back down lastnight. Hope you two are safe at home sometime today.

It was a good day up there and alot of fun, thanks Tina for all your work and to everyone who enjoyed (?) the day. I have to imagine that I'm not the only one that doesn't want to walk anywhere today.

Rick and Micheal got a ride down as the tram was being kept open late while the search for the missing women was on.

Wow. What a break that was. Glad to hear there wasn't a 3X w/ a walk down story attached. That would have been too brutal.

Hope the search was successful. Any word?

Congrats to everyone, two times up is over 16000 elevation gain in a day! That's madness! Very, very well done!

Congrats also to Rick and Michael - it's nice to know there are other people with no better judgment than me! I'm glad you got that last tram down after all!

Steve: Get up and go for a recovery run/walk! Remember a couple weeks ago when your soreness evaporated after you did that? I did a short one today, and I feel much better. Good thing no one was watching though: I was pathetic! I was about 100 yards in, gasping for breath like a fish out of water!

Oh, no, not more fish jokes.

Zip, sorry I missed you at the tram bar. I got there a bit too late.

Guess I just have to save those beers I owe you to next time. Enjoyed seeing everyone else there though.

Oh, and congratulations you wild man. Three freaking Skylines in 24 hrs.

Thanks so much to my pain sister for masterminding this challenging event. When you first suggested the double, I thought "No way!" but your encouragement and support made it possible. Only for you, my dear

Miles of smiles and love,
