Thanks also to the medical folks

Thanks Peter, Helen and all the volunteers for a wonderful experience at CP100K. For me the half mile leading up to the Palisades were more epic than the Palisades themselves. Thanks also to the medical folks both on the Palisades and the finish line for cleaning my cut and bandaging me up...

One amazing race

The Castle Peak 100K is one amazing race. One of, if not the most difficult courses I have run, beautiful views and great aid stations and volunteers. If you like to run long this should be high up on your to do list.

Epic course

... Thank you for sharing your trails and your time - not only is the course epic, but getting to run with the members of this group out there was really inspiring. This is definitely one of the best races in the world (and this is one badass running group)! ...

First class mountain 100k

I think Castle Peak 100k is going to become the 100k that all ultra runners aspire to do. Not because it's an easy course, but because it is a brutal course. A real first class mountain 100k... Congrats to everyone that started the race whether you finished or not, and congrats to Helen Pelster, Peter Fain, and all the volunteers for putting on a great inaugural Castle Peak 100k. Unafraid.
