I must give a quick and HUGE congrats to my big brother, Dirt Dawg, for running and completing the Burning River 100 Mile Endurance Race this weekend. He finished this morning at 8:27 am after twenty-seven hours and twenty-seven minutes. He was 56th out of a field of 101 - there were more, but not all who started crossed that finish line.
This has been a long time coming for him. I am immensely proud of him. It was such a lofty goal, but one that I knew he would make. I am filled with so much pride and admiration right now. I am hoping that he gets lots of much needed sleep, along with my brave SIL who was right there with him as a major inspiration and crew member. I know a lot of people were involved in him getting there and completing the race, but when it's all said and done, his two legs, grit and good ole' Croy mentality did it.
