I know those mountians and I can't think of a tougher place to hold a 100 mile trail race. I guess this win was sweet for me too....at a gathering of ultrarunners in Bend, beer, impaired judgement and pizza -- when I went around asking who would win the night before the race...I heard "Meltzer... Meltzer...., I want Scott to, but I got to go with Meltzer....No way Scott can keep up with Meltzer on descents -- so Meltzer."....I said I gotta go with the coach...I said "Jurek"....to insult to injury...I said "Krissy get's in the top 5 overall"..Most wanted you to win, most didn't think you would, not on that course. Great job!......I am headed to the track....of course!...200's baby!!! God Bless SSJ & LLJ (Lady Leah) -CB SSJ,
Truly a remarkable job, our whole family has come to admire your efforts and watch or progress.., also we have fond memories of Silverton and Ouray as a young family taking vacations there 10 years ago. I know those mountians and I can’t think of a tougher place to hold a 100 mile trail race. I guess this win was sweet for me too….at a gathering of ultrarunners in Bend, beer, impaired judgement and pizza — when I went around asking who would win the night before the race…I heard “Meltzer… Meltzer…., I want Scott to, but I got to go with Meltzer….No way Scott can keep up with Meltzer on descents — so Meltzer.”….I said I gotta go with the coach…I said “Jurek”….to insult to injury…I said “Krissy get’s in the top 5 overall”..Most wanted you to win, most didn’t think you would, not on that course. Great job!……I am headed to the track….of course!…200’s baby!!!
