News about my Heartland 100 mile finish made it into fellow ultra-runner and new respected friend with three 100-mile finishes including Leadville, Gary Henry's website, ultrastory.com.

*note than my previous longest run was actually the 100k (62 mile) finish in April at Free State Trail Run at Clinton Lake, where Allen Smelser and I finished about several minutes ahead of Gary! We knew Gary was coming up out of the woods in the pitch dark because even before we could see the light from his headlamp, we could hear him whistling the tune to "Rocky" as he crossed the finish line!
